The roundtable focuses on the challenges raised by Very High-Capacity Networks, placing particular emphasis on the critical role played by investments in the sector.

The roundtable will foster reflection on the potential future scenarios involving big tech. Expert speakers will assess the pros and cons of big tech contributions to funding network investments, and give their perspective on what are the most appropriate regulatory strategies to approach these matters.

While the question of a fair distribution of investment responsibilities in telecommunication networks, and more in general in the internet supply chain, is not new, the debate has now taken a much wider and more complex dimension. Relevant topics discussed will include net neutrality, strategic autonomy, and last but not least, the new immersive world of Web 3.0 and the Metaverse.
