Using Eurostat regional digitalization indicators and the EU Regional Competitiveness Index, we employ global and local spatial autocorrelation analysis to identify variables with significant spatial spillover effects. We then apply K-means clustering to determine regional susceptibility to digital and competitiveness spillovers. Our novel approach combines digitalization and competitiveness analyses at a granular NUTS2 level, revealing heterogeneous digitalization patterns across European regions. The research identifies regions where digital spatial spillovers are most effective and those at risk of being left behind. Additionally, both competitiveness and digitalization show a relevant nationalization effect, where the spatial spillover between regions appears inside each country with limited effect on neighbouring Member States. This comprehensive spatial analysis offers valuable insights for policymakers aiming to enhance open strategic autonomy, regional digital competitiveness and reduce disparities within the EU, aligning with the objectives of the <em>Digital Decade programme</em> and the <em>Competitiveness Compass</em> initiative.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":22290,"journal":{"name":"Telecommunications Policy","volume":"49 7","pages":"Article 102989"},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144810273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although it has been a central policy, gaps remain in understanding the factors that predict connectivity among these communities. Evidence indicates that rural communities face unique challenges shaped by geographical and socioeconomic contexts, as well as accelerated digitalization due to COVID-19, reshaping access for many underserved areas. This study investigates how connectivity in marginalized rural communities has evolved over time in Chile. We conducted a mixed-method longitudinal study in rural towns across northern, central, and southern Chile, applying a relational and resource-based model for digital inclusion. We compared survey data and interviews collected in 2014–2015 and 2023. In particular, we explored data from 2014 to 2015 to analyze internet adoption levels through face-to-face surveys in 11 rural villages (N = 598) and in-depth interviews (N = 21) in three of them, revealing the importance of personal, social, and material resources for adoption. In 2023, we revisited the same communities (survey N = 449, interviews N = 15). Data comparison shows that while some predictors of Internet adoption became non-relevant over time, others, such as age and education, remain the strongest connectivity predictors. In addition, contextual factors—such as younger populations, generational expectations, and shifting attitudes and demands toward digital availability—contribute to persistent discourses of digital marginalization despite infrastructure improvements.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":22290,"journal":{"name":"Telecommunications Policy","volume":"49 7","pages":"Article 102994"},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144810173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Switching costs moderated trust's influence on alternative platform usage intentions, with higher perceived learning and relationship costs weakening the negative effect of consumer trust on alternative platform usage intentions. Theoretical significance was underscored by introducing switching costs as a potential moderator between consumer trust and alternative platform usage intentions.

A discounted cash flow model was used, supported by sensitivity analyses, reflecting national public safety projects in the United States and Europe. Based on public data and expert interviews, the model shows that significant public funding is essential for MNO profitability. The single-actor business model used in the United States has been shown to be more profitable than the multi-actor model used in European projects due to its broader service portfolio. Additionally, the findings illustrate how public safety projects can influence MNOs’ standard mobile business by affecting market share, with substantial implications for revenue. This study provides a financial model and recommendations to help MNOs maximise profitability in public safety projects and offers strategic guidance for government authorities in designing effective public safety procurement processes.
