Publication metadata
Whether you’re planning a holiday, shopping, studying, watching a movie or bidding for a government contract, chances are you’re using online tools to do so. More and more products and services are either online or available digitally. Yet, despite all the barriers that the European Union has spent years bringing down, hurdles for users across Europe remain. A lot of people are missing out on the widest range of online goods and services, or from the many opportunities the internet offers. It means some internet companies and start-ups have their horizons limited — and cannot do business as widely as they would like, and it means numerous businesses cannot profit from highquality digital services. This is why the digital single market in Europe is so important: it has been created to ensure equal access to products and services, to create the right environment for dynamic and safe online innovative ecosystems in Europe; and to make sure every European citizen, business and government can trust online services and benefit from the digital revolution.
