Herausforderungen für kleinere Unternehmen durch die Digitalisierung. Bestandsaufnahme und Prioritäten

Abstract

Kleinere Unternehmen (KMU) weisen auch in Österreich Defizite hinsichtlich der Adoption von digitalen Technologien auf. Anhand von Technologieindikatoren zeigt sich kein genereller Adoptionsnachteil, allerdings besteht hinsichtlich der Gründungsdynamik und des Anteiles schnell wachsender Unternehmen ein Rückstand gegenüber den innovationsführenden Ländern. Dies dürfte indirekte Auswirkungen auf die Diffusion digitaler Technologien und Geschäftsmodelle haben. Die österreichischen kleinen und mittleren Unternehmen sind sich der Bedeutung der Digitalisierung bewusst, die wichtigsten Herausforderungen orten sie unternehmensintern sowie im Bereich von Regulierung, Finanzierung, IKT-Infrastruktur, aber vor allem in einem Mangel an Information und Wissen.
