ISCH Action IS0605
A Telecommunications Economics COST Network (Econ@Tel) (End date: October 2011)

The goal of Econ@Tel is to develop a strategic research and training network linking key individuals and organizations in order to enhance Europe’s competence in the field of telecommunications economics, to support related R&D-initiatives, and to provide guidelines and recommendations to European players (end-users, enterprises, operators, regulators, policy makers, content providers) concerning the provision to citizens and enterprises of new converged broadband and wireless content delivery networks.Econ@Tel coordinates the development of research methodologies and tools from engineering, media and business research. Regulatory issues helping or hindering the adoption of economically efficient services are identified. Econ@Tel mobilizes the “critical mass” and diversity of economists, business research experts, engineers, and scientists working in communications and content economics.
