By 2015, the internet will contribute no less than 41 billion euros to the Dutch economy.
That's the conclusion of research commissioned by Google and  
conducted by The Boston Consulting Group. The amount could even be  
as high as 47 billion euros.
The growth will be mainly due to increases in the amount of goods  
and services bought online, as well as the money spent on internet  
access and necessary hardware.
In 2009, the internet contributed 24.3 billion euros to the Dutch  
economy. Half of the internet economy consisted of online purchases;  
the remainder was made up of investments by telecom companies (about  
7 billion), government spending (4.6 billion) and exports of  
internet goods and services (500 million).
According to the study, small and medium-sized businesses that are  
active on the internet saw their turnover grow by an average 3  
percent in recent years. Their counterparts with no online presence  
realised no growth in that period.
The Boston Consulting Group says Dutch businesses are missing out on  
opportunities: âThe Netherlands is among those countries which have  
most eagerly embraced the internet. However, despite the fact that a 
lmost everyone has an internet connection, online purchasing, market 
ing and selling among businesses remains relatively limited.â
