 Spectrum policy, whether it's at national or international level, is the way by which this natural resource, which is radio frequency spectrum, is organized and made available to its users. In a way which is sustainable in terms of avoiding interference and ensuring that the adequate spectrum will be available for many years in the future for a given purpose. This is essential today because of the increasing role that radio communications are taking in their life. Everybody wants to be connected at any time to exchange information, to send information, to receive it from any other part of the world. So this is why spectrum policy is essential to our society now. The 17 SDGs, sustainable development goals adopted by the UN last year, are actually enabled, each and every one of them is enabled by radio communications, either directly or indirectly. Radio communications, therefore the spectrum behind them, are actually connecting people wherever they are at any time. But they are also enabling to obtain information on the state of the planet. Earth exploration satellite, meteorological satellite, provide critical information on the Earth resources, whether water or the status of seas, the status of crops. And all this information has an essential role to play in reaching the sustainable development goals. Well, ITU Telecom World is a unique opportunity for everybody here to exchange information and to obtain information on ICTs. So I would like to invite everybody coming here to take this opportunity. ITU Telecom World is important because ICTs are becoming extremely important and this is the only place in the world where all the actors of the ICT World are meeting.
