Provider, participate in one of the most important mappings of the Internet provision market in Brazil

New edition of the ICT Providers survey is in the data collection phase; when contacted by one of the researchers, answer the questionnaire and help the market to better understand itself

Since 2011, the ICT Providers has been mapping the infrastructure for access provision and Internet services in Brazil. Data collection for the 6th edition of the survey, conducted by the Regional Center for Studies on the Development of the Information Society (Cetic.br), has already started, and it is crucial that you, a provider, participate! When you receive a phone call from Ipec Intelligence in Survey and Consultancy, the institute responsible for collecting the survey information, answer the questions. The survey is not only a way to learn more about the sector in detail but also to show society the importance of Internet providing companies for the economy and digital inclusion in the country.

Individual responses will always be aggregated with those of all other survey participants, who are subjected to the same questionnaire. The respondent and the institution they represent will never be identified. It is important to note that, to ensure greater security in the process, Ipec provides this phone number: 0800-800-5000. Thus, participants can call and confirm the authenticity of the contact.

“The data from the ICT Providers have helped underpin strategies aimed at the expansion and improvement of connectivity quality in the country. Over the years, the survey has shown the development of the sector, which is particularly driven by small and regional providers, whose operations have been relevant in delivering the Internet to all parts of the country,” says Alexandre Barbosa, manager of Cetic.br. 

The ICT Providers survey investigates information such as the profile of providers, the services offered, and the market of operation; the technological infrastructure used in access and the speeds offered; issues related to the use of traffic exchange points (IX.br) and IPv6 activation, among others. The survey is supported by a group of experts committed to validating various methodological aspects of the study, including representatives from major Internet provider associations and public agencies, such as the Ministry of Communications (MCom), the National Telecommunications Agency (Anatel), and the National Education and Research Network (RNP), as well as academics and civil society.

Cetic.br, responsible for the study, is one of the departments of the Brazilian Network Information Center (NIC.br), which is linked to the Brazilian Internet Steering Committee (CGI.br).
