They are the foundation of the digital society as well as the knowl-edge society, which are systematically promoted and gradually built by the EU with the aim of encouraging innovation, creativity, and competitiveness of the European industry and the rest of the world. Digitalization implies wider use of the Internet and greater involvement of people, government and companies that are engaged in it and regularly use it. Higher quality broadens the availability and intensive use of ICT infrastruc-ture are the main priorities for the investment of ESI funds, particularly from ERDF.
