Greece Connectivity

score 4.22

Overview

Greece scores 4.22 and retains its ranking at the bottom of the 25 Innovation-driven¹ economies on the Connectivity Scorecard 2011 index.

Greece was at the same position in 2010 with a score of 3.44, thus continuing its weak performance. Despite the fact that the country enjoys a considerably higher GDP per capita than many of the transition economies of Eastern Europe, Greece performs very poorly on most metrics. In 19 out of the 40 metrics considered, the country ranks in the bottom five. Greece is particularly weak on several Internet-related measures of consumer usage and public sector infrastructure, but performs reasonably well on certain telephony-related easures.
With the ongoing economic crisis, efforts to boost the country’s use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) could provide the necessary impetus for economic growth.
