Six Key Words in China IT Industry Development for 2005 |
Zero-duty, Standard, Innovation Capability, Marketing Channel, Capital Operation and Resource Consolidation
1. Zero-duty will bring forth challenges as well as opportunities for IT industry
In 2005, the 251 tax items related to IT products will all adopt zero-duty and this means both challenges and opportunities for domestic IT industry.
2. Standards on core technologies have already become an important influencing factor for China IT industry development.
On one hand, the technological standards are the lifeline, which determines the prosperity of an IT enterprise and a key information industry development index for the nation.
On the other hand, disputes on domestic IT industry-related standards are becoming more and more intense. Domestic IT industry is expecting eagerly for the launch of the standards. As the final decision maker, Ministry of Information Industry also starts to give active responses. It is believed that in 2005, these standards will have a final result.
3. Innovation capability is crucial for domestic IT industry development in 2005
Under the background of WTO and with the fast development of high-tech industry, the IT industry innovation capability will become a key factor for domestic IT industry development in 2005.
4. Marketing channel is a non-ignorable factor for domestic IT industry development in 2005
In the increasingly high market competition environment, those who have powerful channels will be the ones who can dominate favorable footings in competitions and beat their competitors.
5. Capital operation is a new factor to influence IT industry development in 2005
Capital operation is not the simple financing nor to be listed of an enterprise but its process of generating abundant of profit by modes of investment, penetration, merger, stock holding, etc. with its own capital.
6. Resource consolidation will exert great effect on IT industry development in 2005
Entering 2005, to merely rely on a single enterprise's own resources in the information era could not effectively facilitate its participation in market competitions. Modern enterprise competition has transformed from that between single enterprises to competition between one enterprise supplying chain with another such chain, which makes enterprise resource consolidate even more important.
Only by enhancing their product innovation capability, strengthening enterprise core-tech R&D, explore effective marketing channels, improve enterprise capital operation capability and resource consolidation capability under the globalization background can domestic IT enterprises get their victories. |
