| Descripción: | Since the 1980s some authors like Michael Porter visualized the preponderant role that Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and innovation processes would have in the development of business competitiveness. This paper covers the role that ICTs play in local development, based on the fact that companies located in the regions must have information systems that contribute to a rational decision-making process, given that without accurate and timely information local companies cannot be competitive in relation to transnational and multinational companies. Here are presented results from a case study about companies that have participated in the extension project of the Sede Regional Brunca of the Universidad Nacional (Brunca Regional Campus of the National University), called “Strengthening the Competitiveness of ten microenterprises in the Pérez Zeledón County, Brunca Region.” It is concluded that ICTs play a preponderant role in the development of the business park of the Brunca Region and, therefore, are a fundamental pillar in local and regional development. |
