The Information Dividend: Why IT makes you ‘happier’
September 2010

A global study from BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT, shows that access to information technology has a 'statistically significant, positive impact on life satisfaction'.
Additionally, the report showed women, those on low incomes and few educational qualifications benefit most from access to IT. Not only do women gain more than men from access to, and use, of technology, they also achieve greater increased life satisfaction from using it. For disadvantaged women without access therefore the impact of digital exclusion could be the hardest.
Research involved a number of different elements brought together for the first time in this report. The first phase of research involved the analysis of large global social research data sets to establish whether there was a link between IT access and usage and life satisfaction.
This global analysis was followed up by in-depth research into how IT access and usage influences life satisfaction in the UK. Our research in the UK included a unique analysis of data from the British Household Panel Survey plus original primary qualitative and quantitative research programmes.
Elizabeth Sparrow, President, BCS The Chartered Institute for IT said: "Too often conventional wisdom assumes IT has a negative impact on life satisfaction, but the research has found the opposite to be true. IT has a direct positive impact on life satisfaction, even when controlling for income and other factors known to be important in determining well-being."

On the 29th April the Chartered Institute of Marketing Creative Communications Market Interest Group (CIMCOM) hosted an evening looking at the future of mobile marketing, one of the fastest growing marketing disciplines.
Mobile offers marketers a real opportunity to connect directly with their audience at a time and place that is appropriate to the message. Just as you are thinking about a quick drink after work a special offer from a local bar can arrive on your handset! However, it also throws the marketer some make or break challenges around issues of opt-in, relevance and brand engagement.
Presentations from Shan Henderson, Sales Director of O2 Media and Paul Flatters, Managing Partner of the Trajectory Partnership are now available
