“freenet AG's aim is to inform political decision-makers about the challenges posed by competition and telecommunications law in the German and European telecommunications market from the perspective of a medium-sized telecommunication company without its own network infrastructure. In addition, the information offered is also intended to create a framework in which digitalisation and the development of the markets can be promoted and created for both mobile and fixed network, digital lifestyle products and technology-neutral digitalisation.”
