Less than half of Latin America has internet access
Data presented by the Latin American and Caribbean Internet Association of Internet Addresses (Lacnic) show that internet penetration in Latin America is 40 percent, with a low broadband presence. The rate is expected to grow to 60 percent in 2015, thanks to measures being taken to foster digital inclusion. Also according to Lacnic, mobile telephony penetration in the region has reached 110 percent, although there is still 20 percent of the population without access to the service. Lacnic also sees mobile broadband as the best solution for the provision of broadband services.
