Europe 2020 and the Digital AgendaSpeech by Commissioner N. Kroes
Barcelona, Mobile World Congress, 15 February, 2010
The transition to next generation, Internetbased environments is the sectors
greatest challenge since market liberalisation. It is also a chance to offer new value-added services, which will generate new
revenues. The availability of high quality content should drive take-up of new technologies,
in particular broadband internet, digital television and mobile communication.

e new y-a op e regu a ory ramewor or e ecoms prov es a suppor ve anpredictable environment for this scenario to unfold.
With regard to Next Generation Access (NGA) broadband, we will come forward inJune with an ambitious and comprehensive European strategy. A key element of itwill of course concern wireless and mobile services.
This will require an appropriate and coordinated action also on radio spectrum issues.Spectrum is a scarce resource and we all agree that an efficient use of the radio
bandwidth becoming available with the switch to digital technologies, the so-calleddigital dividend, and other coordinated actions are needed to allow better and moreinnovative mobile services.

Competition drives fast broadband growth:Revenues from fixed (broadband) data grew to 62B (from 58,5B) in 2007.14 million broadband lines were added in 2008, bringing the total to 113M, andpenetration in the EU27 to >50% of households.The Netherlands and Denmark now have the highest broadband penetration rates (>30%
per capita) in the world. Eight Member States have higher broadband penetration ratesthan the US.

Economic impact of boosting Europes Digital Economy
[Source: European Commission Digital Competitiveness report (04/08/2009) ]
More competition in broadband will generate 580billion andcreate 700 000 jobs by 2015.
Increased take-up of 3G services will generate 242 billion by

.
Better spectrum management can grow GDP by 0.1% annuallyand inject billions into the EU economy.
Using the digital dividend for wireless broadband in the EU canbring 150 - 200 billion in benefits.
