The creation of a pan-European market for telecom services appears to be at the forefront of the European Commission’s vision for the sector. But what does a single market mean? What would it look like? Would it create a truly borderless market? Would it lead to sector consolidation and if so would it be national or cross-border consolidation? Would it lead to greater efficiencies and would it require a pan-European regulator to make sure it was operated consistently? What is in it for businesses and consumers?
All these questions and more will be addressed at ECTA’s one day conference ‘Single Market for Telecoms‘.
Keynote Address by Vice President Neelie Kroes, European Commissioner for the Digital Agenda
