Abstract

The internet, digital technology, information and communications technology (ICT) have created the so-called „new economy”, one that is based on entrepreneurship in knowledge creation and sharing, innovation and creativity, and utilizing information technology for developing and selling new products and services. The new economy is also characterized by changes in the competitive structure of industries. Sectors with a high potential for development, based on ICT, are at a low level in Poland. Foreign investment is also low. Improving the attractiveness for FDI in this area requires government action in three areas: improving access to net, education policy gains on talents and support for Polish firms to become more attractive to foreign business partners.
