Webirvõrgustiku

Webirvõrgustiku, also known as the Estonian National Broadband Network, is a project aimed at ensuring high-speed internet access across Estonia. The initiative was established by the Estonian government with the goal of creating a universally available and affordable fiber-optic network. This network is designed to serve both residential and business users, with a particular focus on bridging the digital divide in rural and less densely populated areas.

The project involves the construction of extensive fiber-optic infrastructure. This infrastructure is intended to provide speeds significantly faster than traditional broadband technologies, enabling improved access to online services, remote work opportunities, and educational resources. Webirvõrgustiku operates on a wholesale model, meaning that it builds and maintains the physical network, which is then made available to various internet service providers. These providers can then offer their own services to end-users over the Webir network.

Key objectives of the Webirvõrgustiku project include enhancing Estonia's digital competitiveness, supporting economic development, and improving the quality of life for its citizens. The project is a significant undertaking in Estonia's national digital strategy, reflecting a commitment to ensuring that all residents can benefit from the opportunities offered by high-speed internet. The development and expansion of the network are ongoing, with continuous efforts to reach more communities.
