High-quality network infrastructure and broad coverage are regarded as fundamental preconditions for a prospering and growing Europe. To support Europe´s modern information and knowledge society, the European Commission is driving the development of the broadband market. With the “Digital Agenda for Europe” come new ambitious targets for improved broadband availability and ultra high speed levels, a truly single digital market, and digital inclusion.

The European cable industry´s contribution to the Digital Agenda’s touches a number of critical areas which we will discuss on the occasion of the launch of Solon Management Consulting’s new report, Broadband on Demand: Cable’s 2020 Vision. Our guests currently include:

·        Anthony Whelan, Head of Cabinet for Commissioner Neelie Kroes

·        Harald Gruber, Head of ICT & e-Economy Division, European Investment Bank
