Impact of ICT on other sectors

‘ICT has revolutionized the global economy in recent

decades, leading to increased productivity and higher

standards of living. The economies that accrue the

greatest benefits will be those that continue to

aggressively support ICT R&D to keep their firms and

industries at the cutting edge of innovation and

application’

Goals and Enablers

Strategy

Blazing Platforms – Economist February 12 2011

„But, for a full

comeback Europe will

have to wait for an

entrepreneurial culture

like Silicon Valley‟s.

This may not be as

hopeless as it sounds.

The beginnings of such

a culture have taken

root in recent years,

and some successful

start-ups have

sprouted‟

Other bits of Europe‟s mobile-phone industry

are already showing signs of revival. The

revenues of ARM, a British firm, may only be in

the hundreds of millions, but most

microprocessors found in handsets and other

mobile devices are based on its designs.

Ericsson now generates 40% of its revenues

with services, for instance by managing wireless

networks around the world. And on February 7th

Alcatel-Lucent unveiled technology that reduces

the size of a wireless base station from a filing

cabinet‟s to that of a Rubik‟s cube.

Scenario‟s for the Future

Four Scenarios • Scenario 1 - “Status quo” : this is basically an extrapolation of the current

(2011) financial situation, with government funding increasing only by a yearly

inflation rate of 3% and thus constant in real terms.

• Scenario 2 - “Low growth” : in this scenario we foresee a yearly growth rate of

government funding of 8%, as set forward by VRWI in their minimal

guidelines for R&D-expenditure in Flanders towards 2020.

• Scenario 3 - “Moderate growth” : government funding increases at a rate of

15% per year, which would result in doubling the government funding amount

by 2016, but would only bring IBBT at that point at the same funding-level of

other Strategic Research Centers in Flanders today.

• Scenario 4 - “Ambitious growth” : this scenario would accelerate the

alignment of IBBT‟s government funding with that of other SRC‟s in Flanders

faster, i.e. doubling the total government funding by 2013. After the first 2

years, a yearly growth rate of 10% would then be applicable until 2016.
