Popis:	This paper investigates the impact of information accessibility on SMMEs in South Africa in the process of evaluation and adoption of new technology for the business. Information provides SMMEs to have an informed foundation on which to base their decisions on the new technology. The lack of information is perilous to the management of SMMEs, because it limits the ability to adopt, and the affinity to make an informed decision and choice of a new technology. The paper uncovers challenges of information accessibility by SMMEs and their understanding of its impact on adoption.
