Fibre Broadband: Powering Smart Buildings

Wednesday 15th October 10:35 - 11:10

IT & Digital Infrastructure Theatre

Can fibre broadband keep up with the demands of smart living?

This session explores how fibre broadband is transforming smart buildings, highlighting the key challenges and opportunities for developers, network providers and stakeholders in shaping the future of connected environments. As the demand for seamless, high-speed, and scalable connectivity grows, we'll examine how shifts in technology, developer expectations and demand are redefining how gigabit infrastructure is delivered to new developments.

We’ll delve into the challenges of aligning developer priorities with the technical and commercial realities of fibre deployment, addressing complex project requirements, competing stakeholder demands, and regulatory pressures. Key milestones, such as the UK’s 2032 gigabit access target and the Gigabit Voucher Scheme, will be analysed for their role in accelerating deployment and reducing planning friction.
