This workshop will discuss business models and cost reduction measures which could foster the deployment of high speed broadband infrastructures.

  • With regard to cost reduction, an official Public Consultation has been launched on an EU Initiative to Reduce the Cost of Rolling Out High Speed Communication Infrastructure in Europe. To accompany this, on this platform we started crowdsourcing ideas to reduce the costs of broadband rollout. Publish your ideas in the dedicated space!
  • With regard to NGA investment models, we discuss exemplary case studies to thrash out the pros and cons of different NGA investment models and to stimulate a discussion about their pivotal commercial, financial and regulatory features. Which cases should be looked at and replicated across Europe? Read up and comment on the cases of ReggefiberSTOKAB and Portugal Telecom!


Join the discussion, provide your comments, and feel free to launch new themes that you feel should be discussed at the Digital Agenda Assembly.

icon Thai 12 Rear Kick Counter Series - 2) Step-Out

Check out our series on 12 ways to counter the Thai Rear Kick!

Our second counter to the Rear Kick is the Step-Out or Shuffle-Out. The technique is simple, as you are stepping out of your opponent's kick range with two steps, first with the rear foot and then the front foot. Remember to keep your stance when doing this, and afterwards when stepping back in.

Enjoy the video and be sure to check out our other videos in this series and our other series as well!
