GSMA unveils European Mobile Manifesto with the idea to boost economy, protect consumers, increase the use of green technology

The GSMA unveiled the European Mobile Manifesto with the idea to set out how the mobile industry will/could help achieve key European Union objectives to boost economic performance, improve efficiencies, protect consumers and increase the use of green technology.

Through the Mobile Manifesto, the mobile industry outlines its goals to:

• Increase internet connectivity and make mobile broadband access widely available
• Engage consumers and improve efficiency by enabling the “mobilisation” of commercial and public services (eCommerce, eLearning, eHealth and eGovernment)
• Reduce Europe’s carbon footprint through M2M technologies
• Provide mobile privacy tools to maintain consumer trust

The Manifesto outlines specific, detailed goals from the industry and highlights Europe’s existing strength in mobile and estimates the economic, social and environmental benefits of these goals. You can download it from a dedicate page at GSM World’s website.
