Information Communication Technology and Economic Development provides a quick and broad overview of the Indian ICT sector. With its exhaustive examination of the business management and industrial organisation of the ICT sector, it is a particularly useful tool for any researcher or policy analyst interested in a thorough analysis of the mechanics of the sector and the Indian context within which it operates. Syud Amer Ahmed, Papers in Regional Science India has become a highly visible participant in the information communication technology (ICT) industry. Since the 1990s, it has been one of the fastest growing economies in the world, emerging as the most watched test of global capitalism. The contributors to this volume examine how the ICT-driven development of India appears to have skipped the middle stages of the traditional economic development models and leapfrogged directly to the final stage whereby growth is mostly technologically driven. Information Communication Technology and Economic Development reveals new insights regarding the complex process of globalization. It shows how the generation and circulation of intellectual capital in the US and India in ICT have led to greater productivity in the US while facilitating the economic development of India. Most industrialized nations now see the vast intellectual capital-based services that India provides at extremely competitive rates as key to their own national competitiveness in the global arena. The contributors findings suggest that India s ICT-led growth will accelerate in the next ten years, launching India as a major global economic power next to the US and China. This provocative and timely volume will be a necessary read for students and scholars of international business, public policy, economic development, management and strategy as well as all those interested in the impact of globalization on national and regional economies.

Small and Medium Enterprises all over the world have been recognized as the silent drivers of a nation's economy. This Sector occupies an important place in Indian Economy, especially in terms of creation of employment opportunities that provide a source of living to millions of people and their regional dispersal. There has been a rapid growth in electronic commerce worldwide. In a world where the Internet and good communications had helped in accelerating the globalization process and providing a competitive advantage to the organizations and countries. Information and communications technology has a key role to play in driving innovation and competitiveness for small and medium enterprises all over the world. Information Technology can help reduce the costs of the products, enable more efficient development processes and bring products to market more quickly and efficiently than the traditional ways. In today's business world, equipping the labor force with the right skills and providing them access to high-tech infrastructure are essential if the full potential of ICT is to be harnessed for SMEs. The major barriers to optimal use of IT are limitations to broadband roll-out in member states and a workforce in need of training on how to embrace emerging technologies. This paper makes a modest attempt to examine the challenges, constraints, opportunities and strategies for adoption of Information Technology for competency development, technological upgradation, quality improvement and relationship of strategies with overall performance for Small and Medium Enterprises in the context of growing economy. The data for this study has been acquired from an extensive survey of Small and Medium Enterprises in the National Capital Region of Delhi and from the experienced bankers and Officials/Policy Makers of Government of India.

The inability of developing countries to charter a course for technology development and deployment, independent of developed countries, leads to a continued monopoly of developed countries in the high technology sector. This reality has pushed developing countries up a ladder of technology growth, and this book discusses how India should address these challenges. It will be interesting to witness how the narrative evolves in the context of the development of several potentially disruptive technologies, and the onset of the so-called industrial revolution 4.0. This challenge may manifest itself differentially for developing and developed countries, in regards to their contrasting levels of technology development, employment scenarios, and populations, but in this text, the unique challenges of India are analyzed. The challenge of disruptive technologies is daunting for a country like India, with a large, unskilled population. India symbolizes the types of problems which many developing countries face, but also provides hope and could act as a bridge between different levels of technology development. On one hand, the countys workforce is known to be major provider of IT solutions to the developed world, and on other hand, it produces and exports cheap generic medicines to the worlds poorest countries. However, the challenge of disruptive new technologies is quite significant, and may necessitate a bold and imaginative response from its scientific establishments, STEM Higher Education system, industries, and policy makers. Policy makers may have to shed off some of their legacies and cultural mindsets to genuinely encourage innovation and attract as well as retain talent, even in the face of competition from developed countries. This book suggests that several developing countries facing similar technology or development challenges should join hands. Many of these closely interlinked issues are discussed, and the book aims to stimulate discussion between the diverse players such as those in the sciences, technology, STEM HE, Government policy making, entrepreneurship as well as and business.
