Technology to aid economic resurgence, says European Commission 

The European Commission (EC) has called for "smart actions" to aid the European economic recovery and said increased investment in technology is essential to drive growth. 

Speaking during a press conference in Brussels yesterday, EC president José Manuel Barroso said that technology plays a prominent role in the organisation’s European economic recovery plan. 

He highlighted the importance of rapid deployment of digital technologies and said that implementing high-speed internet connections is “as important as building the railways in the 19th century.”
