INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES AND HUMAN DEVELOPMENT: DIFFUSION AND APPLICATION OF ICT
Chapter 2
2.4. Spread and Quality of ICT Access in Azerbaijan in the Focus of Regional Situation
2.4.5. Entrepreneurship
A survey of private companies indicated that the development of ICT was minimal. Each private company that was surveyed had on average only 1.6 computers. Only 1/3 of these companies had access to the Internet and only 25 percent had an internal local network. Basically, computers were being used for office needs and typing. Obviously, usage was not sufficient. In addition, except for Resource Centers, created with the support of international organizations, these small businesses are using non-certified soft-ware because of a lack of funds.
