  1. CM Parallel session B2(M. Le Louarn, INFSO D5/DE sector) Expected economic impacts of DE on regional development: the critical mass phase Rapporteur: Mary Darking, London School of Economics and Political Science, DBE integrated project

  2. Identifying Expected Impacts • Identifying main types of stakeholders involved & individual impacts expected on each type • Identifying global impacts from: • the juxtaposition of individual impacts for all different stakeholders/ • not only direct impacts, but also indirect ones (impacts chains, vicious/virtuous circles, holistic effects) • in particular bridging micro/macro levels, different local/regional territories with differing scopes/goals/ strategies, involving differing sectors and interactions?

  3. Assessing Expected Impacts • Assessing individual impacts on the types of stakeholders - & their “value” (direct and indirect, tangibles and intangibles) • Assessing the global impacts • the aggregation of direct impacts • impacts chain (indirect impacts) • And assessing their value (to the different types of direct - and indirect - stakeholders)

  4. Prime targeted stakeholders for regions interested in DE? • User SMEs (to be enabled across the digital divide) • For increased individual competitiveness, widened market access, and increased services to their own customers • For cooperation/networking with other related/potential business partners • To provide new/further added value through static or dynamic cooperations (service chains)

  5. Prime targeted stakeholders for regions interested in DE? • Local ICT providers (including SMEs) which help User SMEs to cross the digital divide: • (much?) enlarged SME-customer market, geographic and (cross-?) sectoral • Cooperation between ICT providers: setting up jointly added-value services for their user SMEs, increased global competitiveness?

  6. Focus initial discussion on: • How to identify expected impacts in a given region in view of its DE deployment strategy? • How to identify when critical mass is reached - and start to have global effects which can be assessed? • At that stage, how to assess the actual impacts in a given region (identifying if to what extent the various expectations are met?) • How to assess global value of impacts (direct & indirect, tangible and intangibles?) to different stakeholders?
