Workpackage 1 :
Identification of end-user requirements
The purpose of this workpackage was to validate the strategic
guidelines by improving our knowledge of what individual end-users
expected and what they were willing to accept in the future in
terms of content and services linked to leisure and entertainment .
This knowledge had to be built at a continental scale.
The work was conducted under the responsibility of the Research partner,

end-users across Europe, based on 4 steps :
brainstorming between the partners,
interviews with content publishers (mobile operators, internet, tourism companies),
surveys and searches in diferent countries with the end users,
