The Isle of Man has been chosen by the South Korean island of Jeju as an example of an exceptional role model for e-commerce development.

Jeju’s television station visited the Island and the programme has been aired on both Jeju and national Korean TV, describing the Isle of Man as an ‘IT paradise created on a tourist island’ – a clear endorsement of the world class e-commerce industry that has matured here in the Island.

The programme not only explored the e-commerce benefits of the Island but also considered other aspects that make it the success story it is.

Having visited the key features in the Island, Jeju TV interviewed some of the prominent players within the IT business community, such as Chris Hall, managing director of Manx Telecom and Jon Allen, managing director of Domicilium, to discuss how the Island has developed and plans to grow the market even further.
