The development of digital infrastructure in Western Balkan beneficiaries is a flagship for the European Union’s Economic and Investment Plan for the Western Balkans. Through the Western Balkans Investment Framework (WBIF) in cooperation with the European Investment Bank, the European Union is funding a project with €550,000 to investigate the feasibility of improving and expanding broadband infrastructure in Montenegro. The results of the study for the effective deployment of Next Generation Networks in Montenegro were presented during a remote meeting on 19 January.

The project began in July 2020 and includes an assessment of the existing situation in Montenegro and the plans of telecom operators to deploy infrastructure in the next three years.
