The session will be conducted by Miguel López Coronado and is composed of the Jean Monnet Chair "Telecommunications Policy in the EU and the Information Society" held by the Universidad Europea del Atlántico (European Atlantic University) (UNEATLANTICO).
Telecommunications have become a vital aspect of modern society and involve all transmission and reception of signals of any nature, typically electromagnetic, containing signs, sounds, images, or in short, any type of information to be communicated over a certain distance. It accounts for a significant share of economic growth in employment and investment in Europe. Likewise, the development of the means of transmission has modified traditional ways of thinking and cultural patterns.
