CEO of Meo and 16 other leaders call for better conditions for investment in networks and innovation

Jornal de Negócios15 September 2026 at 07:25

The CEO of Meo, Together Data and Nowo Communications, together with 16 other leaders in the telecommunications sector, sent a letter to the main institutions of the European Union calling for better conditions for investment in networks and innovation. The document was addressed to the President of the European Commission, the President of the European Council and the President of the European Parliament.

In the letter, the leaders emphasise that the telecommunications sector can play a relevant role in various contexts, including Defence. The document calls for policies that allow companies in the sector to invest in a more competitive and sustainable manner in the development of infrastructure and new technologies.

This initiative comes at a time when the European telecommunications industry faces growing challenges related to the need for network modernisation, particularly with regard to 5G and other emerging technologies. The signatories argue that more favourable regulatory and financial conditions are needed for the sector to be able to compete globally.

Why this matters

The letter shows the pressure from the telecommunications industry to obtain better investment conditions in Europe, which can influence the development of networks and technological innovation on the continent. European readers, especially in Portugal, may be affected by future policies aimed at strengthening the telecommunications sector and its strategic relevance.

Building for those who need it

Portugal faces a housing deficit of 300,000 homes accumulated over the last decade, with 59,000 pre-certified units that were not built in the last three years. The article argues that this situation is not the result of speculation or greed on the part of real estate developers, but rather of economic unviability caused by taxation (which represents approximately 40% of the final value of a home), by the unpredictability of licensing processes, and by excessive bureaucracy. The private sector argues that there is no alternative to private investment in a country where the public housing stock represents only 2% of the total, and that the tax reforms approved by the Government are beginning to address these problems, making it viable to build housing for middle-income families.
