Abstract

The speed of digitalisation is accelerating, but not everywhere at the same pace. Widening digital divides, between and within countries, may disproportionally harm local small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in digitally lagging host markets. Without proper policies, these actors, important for their local economies, could be denied access, dismissed from or downgraded in their participation in digitalised global value chains (GVCs). This policy brief reviews the literature and analyses entrepreneur-level, national-level and international trade-dyadic data to provide 11 evidence-based policy recommendations aimed at enhancing GVC inclusivity through (1) supra-national level alignment, (2) country-level policy adjustments and (3) firm-level interventions to stimulate digital entrepreneurship among SMEs.
