  3. EITO 2004 Out of the tunnel! Strengthening signs of growthin the worldwide ICT market, however, recovery is still too slow and uncertain in many European countries

  4. Main drivers reinforcing growth in 2004-2005 • Broadband diffusion, both wired and wireless • Integrated networks for E-business and E-government • Increased digital convergence in consumer markets • New digital content and services

  5. ICT as main driver for productivity gains in the US, but not yet in most European countries Pick-up in MFP growth and increase in ICT investment Correlation coefficient = 0.66; T-statistic = 3.03 Source: OECD , ICT and economic growth, 2003

  6. How to take full benefit from ICT investment OECD analysis certifies Europe‘s need to: • Remove unfavourable market conditions and • Promote „related factors“ such as • Education and training for high quality skills • Reorganisation of labour market and public administration • Effective competitive environment • E-business diffusion among SMEs

  7. Europe must not lose momentum at the beginning of a new ICT development cycle • Potential to become a prosperous knowledge society of 500 million people • Should not miss new ICT cycle driven by North America and East Asia • EU enlargement brings new expectations and challenges, both for new and old member states

  8. Relaunching Lisbon • Achievements, but also delays regarding the target set in Lisbon for 2010 • Need to relaunch the Lisbon programme through: • Focusing more on targets/parameters and defining implementation processes • Monitoring and benchmarking progress • Defining and verifying accountability

  9. Enhanced policy actions should be focused on • Human resources as main strategic asset • Main infrastructures: Broadband and DTV • Main professional applications: E-business, Ecosystems and E-government • Main consumer applications: digital content and services

  21. E-business as key area for European enterprises • Continuous web-enablement of enterprise applications • Implementation and integration of process-oriented applications (SCM, PLM) • Adoption of technologies based on Internet protocol • Demand for business intelligence tools/solutions • Adoption of Web services standards for connectivity Challenges: • Budget-related constraints • Focus on ROI and cost saving • Search for real value leveraging on existing investment • Pragmatic step-by-step implementation

  22. Limited IT services growth due to: • Demand for cost control • Focus on core competences • Outsourcing operations (shift to offshore services) • System integration focused on solid ROI and tangible business value

  24. EITO 2004 special study: Convergence and the digital world • Current and future technological convergence accelerates the adoption of new applications, devices and infrastructures. • Convergence drives the realisation of a digital world and challenges present and new business players. • New digital value chains are changing traditional business models and processes. • Most effective convergence relates to digital content, services and business processes, mostly aimed at the end user.

  25. Convergence and the digital world - definition • The phenomenon by which the evolution and/or the integration of technologies with different origins allows infrastructure, delivery devices and applications to provide existing or new functionality. • Convergence enables providers to satisfy existing demands more efficiently or conveniently or supply entirely new products and services.

  27. Three convergence scenarios Source: EITO 2004 special study

  28. Drivers and inhibitors of convergence Source: EITO 2004 special study

  29. Convergence in infrastructure • Limited convergence due to different standards and networks • Convergence around seamless digital networks (Internet protocol) with implications for standards definitions and cross-network communication • New investment driven by VoIP and mobile Internet applications Source: EITO 2004 special study

  30. Convergence in delivery devices • Limited convergence due to depressed market places and constraints for components (battery life, unit size and cost of new chipsets) • End-user reluctance to accept converged devices • Limited common functionalities • Failure of some products Source: EITO 2004 special study

  31. Convergence in communications • Convergence takes place in communications applications, which were historically separated, and will accelerate as soon as IP becomes a dominant network carrier • Present converging killer applications: SMS/MMS and Email Source: EITO 2004 special study

  32. Convergence in information and entertainment • High degree of convergence due to • ability to use digital distribution • availability of fast infrastructure connected to an increasing number of delivery devices • Highly successful second generation online music delivery (which will be followed by online video delivery) • Other successful areas: news, Internet browsing and online gaming • Main obstacles: content piracy (music) and end-user reluctance to pay for virtual entertainment Source: EITO 2004 special study

  33. Convergence in transactions • Strong area of potential convergence, driven mainly by the business sector while consumers will follow • Few integration constraints and open standards • Benefits • Reduced costs • Improved services • Efficiency • Corporate responsiveness Source: EITO 2004 special study

  34. Conclusions • New communication technologies, media and devices as well as the Internet are meeting latent consumer and business needs for seamless, simple and useful digital tools. • An increased number of interested commercial parties, combined with cultural, economic and social changes, will drive the emergence of a true digital world over the next five years. • Plenty of opportunities for digital content and services providers and for digital network operators in Europe. • Need to clarify intellectual property rights‘ rules favouring market development. • Need to promote investment and entrepreneurship exploiting the digital world value chain and opening new market opportunities.
