This article investigates the effects of investments in telecommunications on the productivity of the Iranian economy. The input-output data used in this study are from the Statistical Center of Iran and the Islamic Parliament Research Center of Iran for the years of 2001 and 2011. The input-output tables were aggregated in 19 × 19 tables to make them comparable with one another. Our analysis is based on the work of Peterson (1979) extended by Correa (2006). The results suggest that investments in telecommunications have made a positive contribution to productivity growth, both at the sectoral and national levels.
