@CHEYDEMA

At #MWC24 with CEOs of @Telefonica, @deutschetelekom & @VodafoneGroup, we addressed urgent challenges in Europe: unprecedented pressure from digital giants & a €200B network infrastructure investment gap. 

​As Telcos we are ready to commit our part but we need a new deal in Europe with less regulation and a level playing field in the ecosystem.

@JMALVPAL

#Telecoms industry is the last hope of #Europe in terms of #technology. But to be able to do our job, we need a new regulatory regime: same services, same rules.

It’s revolution time. Let´s think about what Europe needs to do 10 years down the road.

@GSMAPOLICYRT

Scaling up would be possible if we open the space for a single market narrative -really developing a pan-European vision. This could be the basis of a new deal for operators. @RenateNikolay #MWC24MP
