City Fibre is rolling out gigabit-speed connectivity to 8 million premises

City Fibre is unleashing the UK's digital potential by rolling out future proof, gigabit-speed connectivity to up to 8million premises.

About

Clayton will talk about CityFibre's full fibre rollout, the switch to a hybrid
build/consolidation strategy and the evolution of the UK fibre market.
Now that all the major ISPs are connected and selling across the only
alternative platform to Openreach, we're starting to see the structure of
the market change - multi-gigabit services are becoming reality, service
levels are increasing and price competition is becoming real.
As well as delivering transformational gigabit speeds to homes and
businesses, CityFibre's networks serve thousands of critical healthcare,
education and community sites across the UK. This includes hospitals,
GP surgeries, care homes, community buildings and schools. They've
brought fresh choice to local authorities and ISPs, while providing the
ultimate foundation for 5G deployments and smart city ambitions.
After 9 years at CityFibre, Clayton will outline how the company is not
only scaling up - connecting thousands of customers every day - but
setting new benchmarks for speed, value and customer service
