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.
