Sweden is the most e-ready country in the world

The latest survey by the Economist Intelligence Unit has revealed that Sweden is the most e-ready country in the world. Many variables are taken into account by the EIU for testing e-readiness. They include the amenability of the country's market to e-business, Internet penetration, consumption of digital goods and the like. Sweden is followed by Denmark and Netherlands . The United States and the United Kingdom come only after them. It was not highprofile spending on technology but rather a quiet Internet revolution that brought the Scandinavian countries to the top, say EIU researchers. When the EIU first took up the survey in 2000, the United States was the most e-ready country. But things have changed much in the last seven years. And despite all the trumpeting, India is not one of the top eready countries.
