Achieving a Stronger Digital Union 2015

At ETNO, we believe that the telecom industry is instrumental to accelerating the implementation of a European Digital Society, leveraging its assets, expertise and knowledge and serving as a key agent of change.

ETNO has been the voice of Europe’s telecommunication network operators since 1992. The association’s 36 member companies and 9 observers from Europe and beyond are the backbone of Europe’s digital progress and, as we evolve towards a fully digitised continent, they have become enablers of progress as a whole.

Thanks to their investment and innovation in new e-communication services, ETNO companies have been and will continue to be the enablers of a smarter, more competitive and prosperous continent.

For this reason, ETNO has consistently contributed to the policy debate around how to develop a Digital Single Market (DSM) in the European Union.

This paper puts forward the association’s ideas on how a new DSM strategy should contribute to a more prosperous and smarter society by leveraging and unlocking the innovation and investment potential of Europe’s telecom operators.
