Abstract

New information and communication technologies represent a major tool for companies which are involved in a competition by quantities. Their effect is diversely appreciated following the nature of the information (symmetrical or asymmetrical). This work allows us to highlight the Solow paradox which stipulates substantially that: « you can see the computer age everywhere except in the productivity statistics ». that can be understood as: « new information and communication technologies can be seen everywhere except in the productivity statistics ».  The main result of this paper clearly shows that beyond a given threshold, the use of technology by companies are no longer profitable because market shares remain stable.
