Strengthening connectivity through the Digital Networks Act
The Digital Networks Act (DNA) can help the EU build a more coherent connectivity framework for businesses operating across borders. Today, fragmented rules and complex compliance obligations continue to hold back innovation and Europe’s competitiveness.
To this end, the DNA must reduce – not add to – regulatory complexity, ensure legal certainty and avoid duplication with existing EU legislation. It should support investment in next-generation networks while avoiding duplication with existing EU frameworks. Clear scope will be essential to prevent unintended overlap with cloud, content delivery networks or private networks.
Read more on how the DNA can support Europe’s digital transition and long-term competitiveness.
