Abstract

The techno-economic transformation currently experienced has led to definea well-known value on the level of today’s comprehension as a new fact, of which we were aware of its potential, believed in its necessity, yet due to our insufficient comprehension could not so far utilise it extensively.

Actually, what makes economy knowledge-based depends on how we comprehend knowledge and/or information.

In this realm techno-economic transformation, anticipations concerning dimensions of transformation, the evaluation of all related challenges and opportunities of the knowledge economy were discussed. Knowledge economy is a product of transformation. Therefore, the opportunities and challenges embedded in choices should be defined rationally. The study also calls for intellectual effort on deciding upon choices for knowledge-based economy goals in real life.
