Abstract
Does e-commerce provide a level playing field for entrepreneurs organizationally, geo-economically, technologically, and culturally? What are the particular challenges and opportunities for Asian societies and economies? We discuss the major trends in e-commerce that are transforming businesses worldwide and show how Asian companies may indeed "leap-frog" other regional leaders.
