BasicInternet:Basic Internetwhitepaper

= White Paper: The Information-Internet (InfoInternet) = This white paper described the InfoInternet as a standard for providing free access to Information for everybody.

Higher penetration of Internet access in these areas is important for three main stakeholders:


 * (i) For local governments, as digital inclusion is vital for six key sectors: health, education, financial services, retail, government and agriculture.


 * (ii) For the inhabitants themselves to gain access to information related to education and healthcare, and thus providing a possibility to provide better care for themselves and their families. Furthermore, access to internet and information means more employment, income generation and productivity growth for everyone.


 * (iii) For companies that realize the market potential behind this vast number of people currently without access to Internet. This may not be in terms of the purchasing power of each inhabitant, but as a result of the mere number of people. Serving such a number of customers - often residing in rural areas - will only be possible through Internet instead of physical presence.
