1 1 The nature of Globalization, Business and IT Technology and globalization go hand-in-hand. Globalization unleashes technology, which in turn drives firms to plan production and sales on a global basis. Technology changes the work we do and in nearly all cases, the jobs created by it demand more education and training. It also changes the way business operates by transforming relationships between suppliers, producers, retailers and customers. (Ross, 1993, p. xii) between suppliers, producers, retailers and customers. (Ross, 1993, p. xii) Dr. Paolo R. Cerotti ISYS 2394 Session 2 – Semester 2 ISYS 2394 Session 2 – Semester 2 2014 2014

20 20 Definitions A typical definition can be taken from the International Monetary Fund, which defines globalization as the growing economic interdependence of countries worldwide through increasing volume and variety of cross-border transactions in goods and services, free international capital flows, and more rapid and widespread diffusion of technology.

Globalize means to make worldwide in scope or application, and the globalization of trade means freer and more intense worldwide trade across national borders. Technology helps to make globalization possible. Because computers can be interlinked across companies, countries and continents, information is no longer weighed down by geography or time.

21 21 Economic Globalization Economic globalization, (i.e. the aggregate change we observe in our factories, storefronts, indeed generally across our economies and lifestyles) is caused by four fundamental forms of capital movement throughout the global economy. The four important capital flows are: – Human Capital (i.e. Immigration, Migration, Emigration, Deportation, etc.) – Financial Capital (i.e. Aid, Equity, Debt, Credit & Lending, etc.) – Resource Capital (i.e. Energy, Metals, Minerals, Lumber, etc.) – Power Capital (i.e. Security Forces, Alliances, Armed Forces, etc.)

Satyam Cherukuri at Sarnoff speaks of the end of the old model of a single American or European multinational handling all the elements of the product development cycle from its own resources. More and more American and European companies are outsourcing significant research and development tasks to India, Russia, China, South America and Eastern Europe and at times to Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos.
