Project description
General Accompanying Measures
The objective of this project is to develop the coordination of the research in the economics of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in Europe.
ICT have been a major driver of productivity and growth over the last two decades. Today ICT are one of the keys to emerging from the economic crisis and putting countries back on a path to sustainable growth. This project would contribute to achieve these objectives.
Our proposal is to bring together the main research groups into a network which would:
enhance our understanding of the economic effects of ICT; and increase the policy relevance of the research in this field.
The project focuses on four areas:
ICT, Growth and Productivity;ICT, R&D and Intangibles;ICT-enabled innovation; andICT diffusion to the Economy.
To achieve its objectives, the project would rely on:
a network of over 30 research institutions with an established research record on the economics of ICT;a coordination group composed of 4 leading institutions;a series of 8 cross-thematic workshops;a series of 4 issues papers and 4 assessment papers;an interactive website;a final report.
The duration of the project is 2 years.
