The Campaign Week (13-17 March) will highlight the existing work and vision of the sector in enabling world class digital connectivity #ConnectedFuture.

During this week’s “Good to Great Connectivity for the UK” Campaign Week, techUK’s Communications Infrastructure Programme is showcasing the great work and thought leadership in this sector.

As the UK looks towards a post-Brexit environment, Britain’s key differentiator will be in being recognised as having a world-leading standard of connectivity. A key component of this ambition will be in incentivising investment and innovation to enable world class digital connectivity.

Through this campaign week we therefore aim to highlighting the existing work and vision of the sector and have grouped the fantastic guest blog posts by topic on the following days:
