The burst of e-business expectation could not end the rapidly changing trend. Rather, it created more diverse utilization of e-business, instead of e-commerce. It is true, especially for the small and medium enterprises(SMEs) that there are tremendous benefits and advantages to promote e-business for the R&D and procurement, production, transportation, payment, even for the accounting and labor management etc. Due to the fact, the Korean government has initiated many activities to support the information of SMEs without much success. The reason for this failure comes from the fact that the SMEs have few experts as well as less experiences and lack of incentives to do e-business. Therefore, the study emphasizes the importance of Meta-mediary to facilitate, cooperate and provide more market-oriented and profit-oriented solution for the success of e-business. This study shows the four of these paradigm of meta-mediary to promote the productivity of e-business in SMEs：collaborator, facilitator, web-service provider, and a harmonizer between government policies and business strategies.
