New Innovative Technologies In Business

Digital Economy

Digital Ventures are defined as new digital enterprises that trade and operate exclusively online. Digital economy introduced by Tapscott (1996) is the digital e-business enterprise or a qualitatively different living being in a different environment, according to Barr (2001).

In a purely digital context, concepts such as contribution and marginal effects have a greater impact; therefore, economic activity should be measured differently (Brynjolfsson & Kahin, 2000; Gopal et al., 2003).

In literature, both e-commerce and e-business terms are commonly interchangeably used and are considered to be a business transaction that is executed electronically (Wall et al., 2007).
