Résumé anglais It is comonly accepted that the emergence of information and communication technologies is capable of modifying the traditional location factors of firms. However, the example of the Monts du Lyonnais and Beaujolais regions provides contrasting evidence on this question. In the northern sector of Thizy and Amplepuis the relatively dense industrial structure consists of traditional activities such as textiles. These firms are progressively adopting new technologies, although without any obvious territorial dimension. The Leader 2 project of the Monts du Beaujolais based on the creation of a web site is aimed at structuring the territory and inducing an overall process of development. In the canton of St-Laurent-de- Chamousset, an elitist conception of local development has been adopted with the ambitious projects of the Axone incubator for innovative firms and the ERASME multi-media centre, which heads a departmental network for evolving educational applications. The difficulties experienced by local firms in exploiting the potential of ERASME show, however, that the concept of a digital industrial territory is still a long way from reality.
