ICT Management for Global Competitiveness and Economic Growth in Emerging EconomiesWrocław, Poland, September 17-18,

2012 Fast growing emerging economies, including

transition economies, are often considered the growth engine of the global economy. Unfortunately, despite the fast growth of emerging economies, the economic gap between emerging economies and the mature, developed countries still exists. It seems that in order to truly close this gap, new management techniques, new business models, and new regulatory policies, among other factors are needed. Moreover, it could be expected that information and communication technologies (ICTs) will play a vital role in this process.

1. Social, political and legal frameworks and ICT Management in emerging and transition economies

2. Unique ICT management techniques for emerging and transition economies3. Methods for measuring the benefits and costs of projects involving the adoption of ICT4. The role of human and social capital5. Innovative ways for generating revenues creating commercial knowledge products in

emerging and transition economies 6. Educational systems and ICT Management in emerging and transition economies7. ICT to support small and medium firms in emerging and transition economies8. ICT management in small businesses as a path to economic growth9. ICT productivity studies at the country, industry or firm level, with specific reference to the

economies11. Country specific case studies, with specific reference to the social and business conditions
