Abstract :
In terms of the demand and supply of E-market, the author puts forward a model for the determinants of SMEs´ adoption of B2B E-market and tests it. It shows that the determinants of network, innovation diffusion and the enterprises´ internal factors will be positively correlated to the adoption. And among all these determinants, the last one is the most important. While the determinants of the functional mode of the E-market and the external factors will have negligible influence on the adoption of the E-market.
