    Internet Infrastructure And Its Usage In Poland And Other European Union Member States
    (Taylor & Francis, 2016) Katarzyna Śledziewska; Adam Levai; Damian Zięba
    One in four of all households in Poland does not have access to the Internet, while in the EU15, the same refers to only one in every six households. In this paper we analyze the Internet infrastructure from both supply (broadband coverage-speed) and demand (usage of Internet by individuals-SMEs) side, as well as the affordability aspect. In particular, we search for biggest gaps of Poland’s Internet infrastructure in comparison to other European Union Member States (EU15 and NMS12). Our empirical analysis is based on European Commission’s and ITU’s databases. Moreover, we provide some recommendations for the government and enterprises exposing the biggest gaps of Poland and emphasizing the beneficial impact of the Next Generation Access networks.

    (Taylor & Francis, 2016) Katarzyna Śledziewska; Adam Levai; Damian Zięba
    Adopting new technologies into the practice of national government can significantly improve the quality of public services and the government’s general performance. In this paper we present the results of our research on Poland’s performance of e-government in comparison to EU15 and NMS12. The analysis is based on data provided by Eurostat’s Information Society’s comprehensive database. We find that Poland, on average, is lagging behind other European countries from both SMEs perspective and especially from citizens perspective in implementing effective technologies in public sector. In this paper we deliver some recommendations for the polish government.
