Deutschland Online – Getting Connected

"Deutschland Online – Getting Connected" aims first and foremost to present the current status and development of broadband Internet in Germany. But the web is a global affair and requires us to see the bigger picture. We have therefore also included international aspects of the information society in the triad (Europe, United States and Asia).

In addition, we do not want to present a one-sided perspective, especially since the role of the customer – driven in particular by the development of broadband Internet – is becoming increasingly active. For this reason, we asked both broadband Internet experts and consumers about what’s important in broadband Internet.

A total of 142 experts and 14,578 consumers were surveyed for the study. The experts were selected from the areas of stationary and mobile broadband Internet and the digital lifestyle field. Experts from public institutions were surveyed on social aspects. For the international analysis, experts were selected from Europe, United States and Asia.
