The analysis in this paper is based on a hypermedia interface strategy. A broadband portal issued from the concept of the local metaphor (Fidler 1997) has been developed as a prototype. The prototype has been used as a demonstrator and is evaluated in focus group interviews with users and service providers. The prototype represents an example of a true Concurrent Enterprising system since the broadband portal gives independent customers and service providers the opportunity to cooperate and interact by help of a common technological platform.
