(Telecompaper) The European Union reported good progress with its Digital Agenda 2020 goals, with the latest data for 2013 showing it's on track to meet 95 of the 101 goals by 2015. While more people are going online and using broadband, the data shows a number of challenges remaining, notably getting more small businesses online, increasing access to the next generation of broadband and boosting public spending on R&D. Weekly internet users reached 72 percent, on track for the target of 75 percent in 2015, and 47 percent of EU residents shop online, versus a target of half by next year. However, 20 percent of the population still does not use internet, still well above a goal of 15 percent by 2015. There also remains a wide gap in access to high-speed broadband of over 30 Mbps, going from just 20 percent of the population in Italy to almost 100 percent in the Netherlands and Malta. In total, 64 percent of the EU could access more than 30 Mbps at the end of 2013, up from 54 percent the previous year. Only 3 percent of residents are subscribed to 100 Mbps or higher.
