 Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, honourable guests and participants. My name is Christoph Legutka from Intel Germany. Many thanks for this opportunity to share with you some views on broadband policy role for transformation of education. The delivery of education is moving fast from blackboard and chalk towards digital content and multimedia. Broadband policy should pave the way for this transformation. Effective education transformation brings economic and social benefits. Students develop 21st century skills and competencies, better preparing them for success in the global economy. Teachers are better able to unlock student potential and help all students contribute to society to the best of their ability. Businesses benefit from better educated citizenry and workforce. Unemployment rates may decline according to OVCD. Unemployment rates are nearly three times higher among people without an upper secondary education in OVCD nations. As education quality improves, it creates a better social climate, narrowing the digital divide, creating opportunities for a better life and preparing students to lead their communities as 21st century citizens. ICT and education will increase the demand for broadband usage and applications. Therefore, we need to connect all schools and classrooms with broadband, as well as donate schools, classrooms, students, teachers with the ICT technologies. Students will teach digital skills to their friends and families, and the whole society will benefit, not just the students. Education transformation is in the reality an ICT-based education transformation process. Why do we care about the broadband policing context of education? Widespread, affordable and high quality broadband connectivity is a key for education transformation success. Therefore, the modern broadband policing should enable and promote robust content and application ecosystems, facilities-based competition and targeted and efficient subsidies in high-cost areas. On 14th September 2016, the European Commission has published legislative proposals to establish the European Electronic Communication Code, an action plan, to deploy 5G across the European Union as from 2018 and to promote internet connectivity in local communities and public spaces. It is presented in the document called Connectivity for a Competitive Digital Single Market, the words a European Gigabit Society. Current European Telecoms framework is successful in bringing competition to the market, but less successful in promoting investments in ultra-fast broadband in the last mile. In our view, the new European Telecoms framework must foster incentive-based competition and favour exposed oversight over ex-ante control. Remedies must balance the impact on incentives to make risky, expensive broadband investments as well as on static competitive benefits. End-users' interests and rights must continue to be observed. Meanwhile, it is commonly recognised that the optical fibre is the only future-proven base technology for 5G or fibre-to-the-X broadband networks. Supporting services like e-education, e-government, e-medicine, vehicle-to-X communication, multimedia delivery, cloud computing, big data processing and much more. Following this demand, Intel is proposing policy modification to support risky and discretionary investments in ultra-fast broadband networks in the last mile. The basic postulate is that no access requirements unbundling should be imposed on incumbents' fibre networks where there is an effective competition. Competitors have access to ducts, conduits and poles, as well as regulator continues to monitor market performance. Concluding, please let me say that to support educational transformation, schools and students together with their families should be equipped with modern ICT tools like digital content or multimedia devices, as well as having access to the widespread, affordable and high-quality broadband. To accelerate this transformational process, the regulatory framework should be modified to foster investments and financing of broadband access networks in the last mile. One of the basic measures is a liberalisation of access requirements to the networks. It means no unbundling obligations for optical fibre in the last mile. Ladies and gentlemen, let's work together on success of the educational transformation and of accompanying broadband policy reforms. Many thanks for your attention.
