It is likely that business to business and business to consumer communication will be increasingly conducted via the Internet. However, while the potential of the Internet is recognised, the conditions for successful electronic business using the Internet remain to be explored in many industry sectors and different parts of the world. Issues such as organizational readiness, the suitability of the industry sector, the nature of the transactions in terms of standardisation and security, the effect of culture and the requirements for changed organizational infrastructure must be addressed, considered and locally adapted. The scope of this paper is a rich description of the factors that need to be satisfied in order to achieve cultural alignment between the organizational culture and the culture accommodated by\u00a0 e-business uptake.<\/em>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243;][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=&#8221;h3&#8243; text_size=&#8221;h3&#8243;]Keywords[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=&#8221;p&#8221; text_size=&#8221;h5&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;163350&#8243;]E-Business, Culture, Organizational culture[\/vc_custom_heading][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=&#8221;h3&#8243; text_size=&#8221;h3&#8243;]References[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=&#8221;p&#8221; text_font=&#8221;font-213936&#8243; text_size=&#8221;h5&#8243; text_height=&#8221;fontheight-843833&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;387904&#8243;][1]\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 ALI, L., <em>Towards Organizational Culture Alignment of Strategic Information Systems Planning (SISP) Methodologies, <\/em>\u00a0PhD Thesis, DeMontfort University (2000).<\/p>\n<p>[2]\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WILLIAMS, A.,\u00a0 DOBSON, P.\u00a0 AND\u00a0 WALTERS,\u00a0 M. , <em>\u00a0Changing Culture:\u00a0 New Organization\u2019s Approaches ,<\/em>\u00a0 2<sup>nd<\/sup>\u00a0 Edition, London, Institute of Personnel Management (1993).<\/p>\n<p>[3]\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WALSHAM, G., <em>Making a World of Difference \u2013 IT in a Global Context,<\/em> 2001, Wiley &amp; Sons.<\/p>\n<p>[4]\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WEISINGER, J.
