As the European co-legislators are considering the proposal of the European Commission concerning the Single Market in telecoms, the European Competitive Telecommunications Association’s annual conference will explore some of the key assumptions and elements of the proposal as well as the most important business and regulatory trends in the European telecommunications market.

In a series of keynote speeches and panels, high-level policy makers and industry leaders will debate key policy questions related to net-neutrality, data protection, media convergence, competition and business models in the fixed market, the correlation between regulation, investments and innovation, the review of relevant markets, the state of the sector, market structure and the question of consolidation as well as spectrum harmonisation and roaming.
