Network Industries & Digital Economy
Network industries are at the heart of the current economic transformations. They are gradually opening up to competition, which has been changing drastically the structure and functioning of these markets. Secondly, they transform the infrastructures of the economy. The rapid digitisation of our economies, fuelled by network information and knowledge technologies, favours the emergence of new industrial players and new services, as well as it changes the design, production, distribution and consumption of goods and services.
