ExEcutivE suMMary
The Sectoral e-Business Watch The “Sectoral e-Business Watch” (SeBW) studies the adoption, implications and impact of electronic business practices in different sectors of the economy. It continues activities of the preceding “e-Business W@tch” which was launchedby the European Commission, DG Enterprise and Industry, in late 2001, to support industrial policy, notably in the fields of competitiveness and innovation. The SeBW is based on a Framework Contract between DG Enterprise and Industry and empirica GmbH, running until the end of 2010. In ICT-related fields, DG Enterprise and Industry has a twofold mission: to enhance the competitiveness of the ICTsector, and to facilitate the efficient uptake of ICT for European enterprises in general. The services of the SeBW contribute to achieving these goals, by supporting informed policy decision-making in these fields. In 2007/08, ten studies on sectors and specific ICT issues have been conducted. This report summarises the main results. The full study reports, and further resources such asbrochures, case studies and table reports with more detailed survey data, can be downloaded from the programme’s website (www.ebusiness-watch.org).
