Acknowledgments

Different teams and people have taken part in the development of this study. First of all, we want to thank the Euskaltel Group for its collaboration, whose commitment to the Digital Economy Lab is maintained year after year.

In the collection of information, the Provincial Council of Bizkaia-Bizkaiko Foru Aldundia, the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa-Gipuzkoako Foru Aldundia, Bilbao-Bilboko Udala City Council, Donostia-Donostiako Udala City Council, Vitoria-Gateizko Udala City Council, City Hall Irún-Irungo Udala, City Hall of Barakaldo-Barakaldoko Udala, the Basque Institute of Public Administration-Herri Arduralaritzaren Euskal Erakundea (IVAP), Osakidetza as well as the SPRI for its contribution in contrasting the results. This study would not have been possible without the invaluable collaboration of the Basque Institute of Statistics-Euskal Estatistika Erakundea (EUSTAT).

Likewise, and for the third consecutive year, we have found the cooperation with Anna Armengol and Balazs Zorenyi of the European Commission very valuable.

Finally, we want to thank the work developed by Javier Porrúa, collaborator of the Lab of Digital Economy of Orkestra.
