Theocharopoulos said the quality-price ratio of Internet access services in Romania is very good compared with other markets in the region. Demand for high-speed Internet connections is very high and operators provide these services for an accessible price.
When asked whether Deutsche Telekom, which indirectly controls Cosmote Romania and Romtelecom, would bring its group brand to the Romanian market in the next five years, Theocharopoulos answered such an operation must be very well considered.
In his opinion, a telecom company should focus on providing an environment for information exchange and stay out of the content service market.
Theocharopoulos added that the industry’s average revenue per user has remained stable, despite the adverse conditions.
