The data sourcesThe data sources

Each method implies a different use of statistical information taken from the COE database. According to the first method to define ICT sector we use statistical information grouped by individual economic traders, while to define ICT products we use statistical information referred to all goods classified by the CN8 (Combined Nomenclature) code and traded by individual economic traders

ASIA database: ISTAT micro files on all active enterprises

COE database: ISTAT micro files on international trade
