Mobilising Europe’s Digital Agenda: Overview

Implementation of the Digital Agenda will be a key contributor to achieving Europe’s 2020 strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth. A digital single market based on fast internet connections and interoperable applications will spur innovation, economic growth and improvements in the daily life of citizens and businesses. The mobile industry is playing its part in meeting the challenges identified in the Digital Agenda by delivering fast internet access, enhancing trust and security, enabling the digital single market, and helping address key societal issues such as healthcare and climate change.

At the core of all of these endeavours, and necessary for progress in all other areas, is the need for interoperability and innovation. The GSMA continues to work with its partners in the mobile ecosystem to ensure that new applications, capabilities and devices will work together and offer consumers and businesses a seamless experience. Interoperable mobile technology holds significant potential to improve the lives of European citizens and the economic performance of the region.
