CityFibre, the UK’s third national digital infrastructure platform, has expanded access to its full-fibre Ethernet services to Derby businesses.
This expansion is a continuation of the company’s efforts to enable channel partners to deliver its services across the UK, it claimed, adding that partners have access to a range of services designed for business use in each area serviced by it.
CityFibre last year announced a £45m investment into its “state-of-the-art” full-fibre network in Derby, which is a part of a wider £4bn project to bring full fibre to as many as eight million UK homes by 2025.
Research from economic consultancy Regeneris suggested that full-fibre connectivity will have a major impact in Derby over the next 15 years, with access to full fibre potentially unlocking £39m in business productivity and innovation, while a further £21m in growth could be driven from new business start-ups, with enhanced connectivity making it easier and less expensive to set up base and run efficiently.
CityFibre’s Head of Wholesale, Andrew Wilson, stated: “The latest expansion of our network in Derby is further evidence of CityFibre’s unwavering commitment to bringing its full fibre services to homes and businesses in towns and cities across the UK.
