Zoning of the European Union countries on the grounds of Internet use in the corporate business activities

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article was to distinguish zones of the European Union with similar patterns when it comes to using Internet for their business activities. The knowledge on the zone formation, meaning neighbouring countries here, with a comparable level of development described by diagnostic variables, can be of cognitive significance as well as practical, which would be useful while planning and managing area development. The main hypothesis was founded on the thesis that the European Union was spatially diversified in the area taken into consideration. The research was conducted using a multidimensional method of comparative analysis using data from the year 2014, and the main source of knowledge on the subject of study was Eurostat. The results of the research have proved that the hypothesis is true. It has been proved that in Europe the division into north and west regions with good communication and east region with worse communication is visible. Internet is used relatively more rarely by companies operating in countries located in eastern and south-eastern border of the European Union.
