CERRE has unveiled its latest report, “Ideas for the Future of European Telecommunications Regulations”, which features 10 strategic recommendations aimed at guiding Europe’s telecom sector toward greater competitiveness, innovation, and resilience.
Addressing pressing regulatory challenges that will shape the future of the industry, these recommendations reflect the authors’ independent vision for the European telecom market. They aim at achieving the Digital Decade targets and the objectives pursued by the Letta and Draghi reports, particularly in fostering infrastructure investment, harmonizing regulations, and supporting 5G deployment. Presented at a recent event attended by Enrico Letta, the recommendations also contribute to a broader European vision of digital sovereignty and regulatory cohesion.
“Europe’s telecom landscape is at a turning point”, said Bruno Liebhaberg, CERRE’s Executive Chairman. “The recommendations of this report aim to support at the same time the telecom operators’ ongoing adaptation to new technologies and consumer expectations, and sustainable competition. It’s about creating a regulatory framework that thrives innovation and consolidation. I am also glad to note that the general message of the report is very much in line with President Ursula von der Leyen’s mission letter to Executive Vice President-designate Henna Virkkunen. As such, our independent think tank’s contribution should usefully inform the upcoming work of the Commission.”
