INTERNATIONALISATION OF EUROPEAN ICT ACTIVITIES...

The internationalisation of information and communication technologies has accelerated since
the 1990s in Europe and worldwide. Taking a close look at the empirical analysis of competitive
trade positions  trends in foreign direct investment and the internationalisation of research
and development in ICT brings many new insights about the expansion  innovation and adjustment
in the EU's most dynamic sector. Moreover  the analysis discusses case studies on key players
in ICT and suggests major policy conclusions for a field considered fundamental in the context
of the EU's Lisbon Agenda. The theoretical and empirical analysis gives a new and
differentiated picture of European ICT where the links between telecommunications dynamics 
software innovation and digital services are crucial. Outsourcing  insourcing and offshoring
are natural elements of a new digital international division of labour which require reforms in
both the EU member countries and at the supranational level.
