According to the latest EU summary, Hungary is leading the way in the field of 1 Gbps internet subscriptions, Deputy State Secretary for Digitization Balázs Károly Solymár of the Ministry for Innovation and Technology said, according to profitline.hu.

Solymár added that more than 13% of domestic subscriptions are 10 times higher than the EU average of 1.3%.
