Abstract

The fast proliferation of services over the Internet and the development of new Internet standards and technologies are affecting the existing business models of the traditional telecommunications market. This holds, in particular, for the ISP market. This paper assesses the impacts of basic elements of business strategies on the relative competitive position of selected types of ISPs. One result is that the incumbent telcos have a relatively strong starting point in the ISP market, while small regional ISPs have a weak starting point.
