ETNO Press Release - Lead or Lose: Europe is at digital crossroads, telcos can make the difference

Brussels, 27 September 2017 – Europe has lost as much as €100m in telco EBIT each day to digital disruptors and telcos in other regions for the past 10 years, which has impoverished the bloc’s digital economy. However, if industry and regulators embrace transformation, Europe can gain up to €4bn/day by being at the centre of the digital ecosystem, according to Accenture Strategy research conducted for ETNO.

With Safer Internet, our collaborative venture with Microsoft and Child Focus, twice a year, Proximus collaborators raise awareness among fifth- and sixth-year primary school pupils about safe and responsible Internet use.
