'The road to better broadband'

BroadwayPartners LLP launched today a new UK initiative aimed at securing long-term investment and management expertise for high quality broadband access utilities.

Groupe Intellex editor David Brunnen is supporting the new venture in the role of Policy Partner.  

Commenting on the initiative he said, "Disparities in advanced broadband provision between urban and rural  areas  inhibit economic growth and societal development nationwide but this  issue  can only be tackled through long-term commitments to higher quality utility investment and that demands strong local leadership encouraged by smart policies and informed regulation.  Today's announcement by HM Treasury that they propose to improve the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) is a step in the right direction."
