This video highlights Croatia’s National Plan for Broadband Development 2021-2027 and its flagship State Aid Scheme designed to boost broadband deployment across the country. Through this initiative, Croatia aims to ensure high-speed connectivity of at least 100 Mbps for all households, and symmetric 1 Gbps connections for public buildings such as schools, hospitals and government offices. The plan also supports the rollout of 5G networks in all major cities, towns and along key transport corridors.
The video features Julijana Jančula Bauer, from BCO Croatia (HAKOM), who explains how the State Aid Scheme supports broadband investments, reduces the digital divide between urban and rural areas, and strengthens Croatia’s path toward a fully connected society.

This video is part of the European Broadband Competence Offices Network’s programme promoting awareness of good practices in broadband projects and EU digital connectivity initiatives.
