As Ofcom finalised its initial set of conclusions from its ongoing strategic review of digital communications and set out a clear plan for next steps, this seminar offered delegates a timely opportunity to assess priorities for the regulatory framework for the UK’s digital communications markets.
Sessions considered regulatory approaches for supporting fair competition, and innovation and quality of services, within the UK telecoms market in light of increased merger and acquisitions activity and the continuing blurring of boundaries between landline, mobile and broadband markets following the emergence of quadplay. Ongoing consolidation in different areas of the market were discussed, as were consumer experience and choice throughout the UK and more widely as the European Commission reviews the EU telecom regulatory framework as part of its Digital Single Market strategy.
Further sessions analysed future market factors which are likely to impact the telecoms sector - and strategic priorities for industry, Government and regulators to help increase investment, foster further cross-sector partnerships and identify areas for possible deregulation in the context of changing needs of individual consumers and businesses.
