The health and well-being of our customers and engineers is our number one priority, with new measures in place to protect everyone. And despite the best efforts of COVID 19, we're still rolling. With telecommunications field, network, installation, planning and support workers now classified by the government as key workers, we're more determined than ever to keep the UK connected. https://bit.ly/2UmJVH1
In response to today's Budget, Dana Tobak CBE, our MD & CEO has the following statement: “Today’s Budget marked an important step forward in delivering full fibre coverage across the whole of the UK. However, as the Government has consistently recognised, private investors will deliver the significant majority of full fibre rollout in parallel to this investment of public funds. It is disappointing that Government missed this opportunity to support commercial rollout by extending the Full Fibre Business Rates exemption. The clock is ticking on the ambition to deliver full fibre coverage to all in less than five years. With the public element of this policy now secured, Government has a narrow window to secure the right conditions for privately funded rollout – the next Budget will be the final one before the current full fibre business rates exemption expires.”
#EmployeeAppreciationDay, and we love an excuse to honour our Hyperoptic family and we want to celebrate how far we've come in the last 9 years. From the UK to Belgrade, engineers to sales, and everyone in between - we salute you, our true hyper-heroes!
When we say we provide an amazing service and excellent innovation, we're not exaggerating. We've scooped a double win from comparethemarket.com's #SimplesAwards for Service and for Innovation, and we are thrilled for the recognition.
We’re thrilled to have scooped the Fastest Ultrafast Provider awards for both upload and download speed at this year’s Broadband Genie Home Broadband awards. Access to reliable broadband is a necessity these days, and we’re here to provide it.
Oliver Dowden CBE MP, the new Culture Secretary, visited one of our sites on his first day in the new post. We’re looking forward to fostering a close relationship with him and his team, to ensure our shared vision for full fibre across the UK becomes a reality.
We're celebrating #STEMDay! This summer we were joined by some students from TechCamp, a programme set up in partnership with Brent Council. These tech-focussed students learnt about different parts of the Hyperoptic business, from how broadband works to what happens when engineers install equipment, and had some fun along the way... Here's to the future of STEM!
Dana Tobak CBE, our CEO, had a really productive meeting at Number 10 yesterday with the Prime Minister, Culture Secretary Baroness Morgan, Minister Matt Warman MP and our fellow telco companies. Here's to working together to bring full-fibre across the UK! #GigabitBritain
