📋 Tender Overview
Bavaria is driving the supply of fast internet! The Free State of Bavaria has been involved in a voluntary basis for years in particular when it comes to fiber optic expansion and has already invested over 2.6 billion euros in state funds. This lays more than 104,000 kilometers of fiber! The close exchange with telecommunications companies is essential to maintain the best framework for network expansion. Together we increase our already high gigabit quota in the Free State of almost 81 percent quickly. As one of the largest network operators, Vodafone GmbH plays an important role in supplying fast internet. However, it is also a long -time contractual partner of the Free State of Bavaria in the operation of the Bavarian authority network, for mobile communications, telecommunication and Bayernwan for state departments. On the way to the gigabitz age, it is important that all actors continue to pull together so that rural areas are quickly supplied.
The federal government still does not meet its jurisdiction and financial responsibility here, said Finance and Home Minister Albert Furacker as part of a conversation with Marcel de Groot, Chief Executive Officer of Vodafone GmbH. Bavaria is Germanys gigabit engine. In 2018 we started the gigabit in the landline for the first time, today it can be used by around 7 million Bavaria. And here in the state we start to make the largest gigabit network even better and larger. With even more fiber optic connections for hundreds of thousands of other households, which we build as Vodafone and together with the OXG in the next few years. This year we are already starting in Augsburg, Hof, Nuremberg and other cities. In mobile communications, we have also activated the real-time network 5G+ throughout the state-so that data can be transmitted from our smartphones as quickly as the human nervous system can react, says Michael Jungwirth, part of Vodafone GmbH.
Due to the close exchange between the Bavarian State Ministry of Finance and for Home and Vodafone GmbH, the private sector expansion of the communication network as a central infrastructure engine is to be further advanced in the coming years. All follow -up users can also make an important contribution to more thrust when expanding fast internet in Bavaria: Only a high demand quota places a strong signal to the telecommunications company and the federal government as an original sponsor.
