A project working to develop broadband infrastructure in rural and remote areas in Greece was recognised at the recent European Broadband Awards 2017 for its contribution to territorial cohesion.
The project – which provided connectivity through a variety of broadband technologies to more than half a million people at affordable prices – benefitted from private, national and EU funding, including support under the Rural (EAFRD) and Regional Development (ERDF) funds.
