European Commission Vice-President Neelie Kroes today (19 May) unveiled her strategy to create a "virtuous and self-replicating digital economy". The five-year plan concentrates on infrastructure for high-speed Internet and fostering a borderless market for online music and film.
Kroes, who has held the Commission's new 'digital agenda' portfolio for almost three months, presented a 39-page plan to boost the digital economy.
The plan aims "to put the interests of Europe's
citizens and businesses at the forefront of the digital revolution and
maximise the potential of Information and Communications Technologies
(ICTs) to advance job creation, sustainability and social inclusion,"
Kroes said in a statement.
