The new British Scientists in Spain (BSS)
Network establishes
a
communications
platform between the
British and Spanish
scientific communities….”
Spain has made huge
leaps in areas such

as renewable energy, agri-technology
and in the ‘new materials’ sector so we
are working to boost
partnership in those
areas.” The field of
biomedical research
is also an area where
bridges can be made.

Telefónica to
triple customers’ broadband
speeds before
the summer
Telecom operator
Telefónica has announced that it will
triple the connection speed for all its
internet customers
before the summer. The communications provider
will also switch all
its ADSL clients to
its new fiber-optic
network as soon
as the service is
available in their
location at no extra charge. The
unprecedented
move rests on the
fact that Telefónica
knows its customers require a quality broadband connection in order
to subscribe to its
new services, such
as streaming video
or pay TV. From El
Pais in English.
