Description:

El Salvador's Infocentros has a business model that is unique among telecenter networks. Not only it is based on a sophisticated franchising approach, but each telecenter operates as an incubator for new businesses based on local content and knowledge. Successful businesses are replicated across the telecenter network, with Infocentros gaining a share of the revenue. Infocentros is an example of a development-centered ICT strategy based in a unique partnership between government and civil society.
