During the last decade, S&T research on the field of information and communication technologies (ICT) has grown dramatically in Argentina. As a consequence of this process, today it is possible to see that the disciplines involved in this field widely exceed those considered as specific, since exact sciences and engineering, devoted to the study of these technologies in particular, are more and more accompanied by natural and social sciences, humanities and different expressions of art. The goal of this paper is to know what is researched in the field of ICT in Argentina, in order to analyse which kind of knowledge is produced and to what extent it contributes to the country’s economic and social development. The information surveyed made it possible to make a first approach to the network of links between the different fields of knowledge addressing the issue and those sectors of society to which the produced knowledge is transferred.
