  • The tax implications of trading online.
  • The experience of other companies when they implemented eBusiness/ICT projects.

It includes: How to guides to help with such decisions; case studies about companies which have addressed similar issues; key guidelines for managing IT; a database of solution providers; an online ebusiness self-assessment tool and other resources.
