What we do in Information and Communication Technologies

This EBRD sector covers traditional fixed-line switched telephony services, principally voice-based, value-added services such as cellular mobile and data transmission, advanced services such as satellite phones and internet, entertainment, information technology and media services such as cable television, TV network distribution, and publishing. Traditionally, there has been a clear distinction between the various elements within the sector but with the global convergence within the information and communication technologies, consumer electronics and related industries, this is no longer the case.
