"Although all Member States have a national broadband strategy, only a few have fully-fledged operational plans which include the targets laid out in the Europe 2020 strategy, namely: ensuring non-discrimination, promoting available technologies and preventing measures placing unfair burdens on consumers and business. We believe broadband services are essential for the competitiveness of the economy and are a prerequisite if all regions and social groups are to participate in digital life in the European Union. We therefore call on the Member States to open up network competition fully and to avoid both subsidies that distort the market and the emergence and abuse of dominant market positions. They must promote and extend high-speed open-access connectivity to important public infrastructure located in remote areas as a means of improving public services. In conclusion, we believe that the European Union should increase research investment in both fixed and mobile future communication technologies and develop joint technology initiatives in these areas, involving universities, research institutes, device manufacturers and service and content providers."@en1
