This is an interesting article in the siliconrepublic website that suggests that failure to invest in fibre broadband could make Europe an economic backwater.
'European nations and their respective incumbents’ inability to embark on ambitious fibre infrastructure plans that will prepare their countries for the 21st century and beyond could cost them dearly, the director general of the Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) Council Hartwig Tauber told Siliconrepublic.com.
He said that by 2020 when the EU is targeting 50pc of homes having 100Mbps, consumers will be requiring download speeds of 170Mbps and upload speeds of 100Mbps.'
