Un marco flexible y abierto permite que las empresas desplieguen un mayor grado de innovación, lo que a su vez genera una carre- ra a la excelencia cuyos principales beneficiarios son los ciudadanos, en forma de mejores servicios y precios más atractivos. Un buen ejemplo de los beneficios sociales y económicos derivados de mejorar el marco regulatorio es el sector aé- reo.
