Abstract

The information revolution has spread globally, but reliable data are not readily available on worldwide information infrastructure investment, growth, revenues, and breakdown between developed and developing countries. As a step towards overcoming this shortfall, in 1999 infoDev commissioned Pyramid Research to review and collect data in 60 countries, extrapolate to the rest of the world, and aggregate by developing regions and for the OECD. This note summarizes some of the initial results.1
