About the product

The report is the outcome of a joint project of UNCTAD with the National Statistical Office (NSO) of Thailand, and is one of the first studies to use official developing-country data to measure the productivity impact of ICT in business. It shows a detailed analysis of trends in ICT by the Thai business sector by looking in particular at the use of computers, the Internet and the web. The study also reviews the specialized literature estimating the productivity impact of ICT use at the firm level in a number of developed countries. It presents results of the empirical analysis measuring the impact of ICT use on productivity in manufacturing firms, both at general level and also by geographical region, industry branch, firm age and size.
