ETNO brought together Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) of 16 companies from new and future member states for meetings with Mrs Viviane Reding, Commissioner for Information Society and Media and Mrs Danuta Hübner, Commissioner for Regional Policy.
This meeting was the opportunity for the CEOs to draw the commissioners’ attention to the digital divide between the old and new member states and the importance for the implementation of the framework to reflect the need for infrastructure investment. On 28 November, ETNO gathered experts from its member companies as well as representatives from national regulators and the Commission for a workshop on the lessons to be drawn from two years of implementation.
