The Next Phase
So Why Did The Bubble Burst? Expectation: The Internet and E-commerce would be driven by
new services consumers would pay for.
Reality: The real growth in E-business will be to drive efficiency and cut cost.
Expectation: Transformation would be fast, painless and sweep away the resistors.
Reality: Supplanting an old industrial network built around
machines, paper, and people takes considerable time and brings considerable disruption.

The Next Phase
So What Do We Need to Do?
1. Recognize that the real impact of IT will be through digital transformation of entire industries.
2. Recognize that innovations in the IT sector are far from over, and that while customer-led adoption will be the driving force, vendor-led innovation still offers new possibilities.
3. Recognize that we need to move to a new phase of IT policy that focuses on removing barriers and creating conditions for the widespread transformation of whole industries.

The Next Phase
Move beyond the fashionable skepticism, and
Dare to Dream Again
about the potential of IT to transform our economy
and our lives.
