With a population of more than 310m and very high income levels, the US is the world's largest consumer of information and communications technology (ICT). In many sectors, including personal computers (PCs), the US is also home to the world's largest producers.

US companies have a dominant global role in the manufacture of computers (Dell and Hewlett-Packard), the development of computer software (Microsoft and Oracle), the provision of IT services (IBM) and Internet search (Google), and the development of applications that have set in motion new trends for consumer behaviour (Apple).

In 2011 US spending on IT hardware, software and services was estimated at US$601bn, the highest figure in the world. US expenditure was more than three times greater than for Japan (which comes second) and more than five times the amount for China and the UK (third and fourth, respectively).
