 Unique Characteristics of ICT
ICT is pervasive and cross-cutting
 From personal use to business and Govt.
 Can be tailored to meet personal, local, diverse
needs.
 ICT creates networks

 Those connected benefit from the network

 The Network externalities increases as it
grows
20
 Characteristics cont’

ICT disseminates information and

knowledge
Separates content from its physical location
Makes knowledge available to remote
communities
ICT allows for zero or declining marginal
costs
Replication of content is free
Distribution of marginal cost is near zero
ICT reduces transaction costs
21
 Characteristics cont’

ICT enhances efficiency

 Has power to store, retrieve, sorts, filter and
distribute information
 Makes processes and transactions leaner and
more effective

ICT reduces the need for intermediaries

 Links consumers directly to producers
 Allows users to acquire products and
services directly

22
 Characteristics cont’

ICT is global
