Connected Society

Redefining Digital Connectivity to empower individuals with the resources they need, precisely when and where they need them.

The Digital Infrastructure

Policymakers now recognise that digital infrastructure—such as full fibre, Wi-Fi, and 5G—is as fundamental to the future of local communities as the railways and roads that connect us. These technologies are no longer luxuries but necessities, underpinning the foundations of modern life and fostering economic, social, and educational growth.

Digital connectivity has revolutionised the way we live, learn, and work, transforming our perception of distance, speed, and time and enabling new possibilities for collaboration, innovation, and efficiency.

Access to widespread, affordable, and high-speed internet, along with reliable Wi-Fi and 5G networks, is a critical driver of productivity, economic growth, and enhanced social outcomes.

    The Challenge and Opportunity

    Our experience of digital and IT services is often fragmented and inconsistent, shaped more by circumstances such as our location—whether we are inside or outside a building—and the type of device or technology we are using than by the actual resources we need at any given time. This disconnect can lead to inefficiencies and frustrations, preventing us from fully leveraging the potential of digital connectivity to enhance our daily lives and work.

    To provide a consistently excellent and seamless digital experience, it is crucial to unify and integrate all aspects of digital connectivity. This involves bringing together full fibre networks, local area networks, and Wi-Fi services in key locations such as civic centres, hospitals, campuses, offices, and homes.

    At the same time, it is essential to ensure reliable mobile services that enable uninterrupted connections no matter where we are. By creating a cohesive and interconnected digital ecosystem, we can break down barriers, improve user experiences, and empower individuals and organisations to thrive in a digitally connected world.
