Description

Orange CEO Christel Heydemann advocates for European telecom consolidation to rival US and Chinese giants, citing the need for significant investments in tech like 5G and fiber networks. Orange, Bouygues, and Free formed a bid for rival SFR, but faced rejection. Heydemann emphasizes the urgency for speed in these deals, despite consumer concerns about potential price hikes and reduced competition. The EU supports more mergers, citing market fragmentation as a hindrance to competitiveness. Heydemann stresses the importance of modernizing regulations to boost investment and growth in telecom, while acknowledging the need for tailored approaches across different markets.
