      abstract = {This brief study builds on the literature on information  and communications technology (ICT) and labor productivity  by empirically showing the importance of ICT spillovers  across regions. We begin by developing a model of regional  labor productivity and discuss where ICT spillovers can  play a role. Using a provincial-level dataset for Iran from  2001-2011, we nd that ICT spillovers exist and have  signicant eects on labor productivity. Our estimates  suggest that a one percent increase in ICT investment in  one province leads to a 0.66% increase in labor  productivity in all other provinces.},
