“As our service economy increasingly moves online-in education, health, work and government services we need to ensure that all Australians have affordable access to the online world”
A comment flowing from the Australian Bureau of Statistics report, The Australian Household Use of Information Technology.
Nowhere was the need for a new approach to high-speed broadband solution clearer than across the post-industrial landscape of Geelong. Victoria’s second biggest city.
It was here that Community Broadband Networks (CBN) was formed to meet the need for the mandatory and well-defined internet infrastructure that must support local communities if they are to make a positive contribution to economic, social and cultural development.
High speed, reliable and affordable broadband networks are the key to the future of Australia’s regional and rural economies.
This indisputable truth underpins Community Broadband Networks and our mission is to help secure that future for your community through bringing together the right combination of people, products and services. There were massive changes to the original business model of the NBN – and a resulting plethora of performance and cost problems – public confidence has withered in what was once described as a nation building project designed to benefit its economy.
It is clear that a new approach is needed if the digital divide is to be bridged and regional and rural economies are to prosper. Whatever the community – public sector agencies, health and aged care services, education, commerce or industry – you have the right to choose the best broadband network for your needs in your regional or rural area.
Wherever your business is and no matter it’s size, success and growth today depend on your access to high-speed and reliable broadband. By far the biggest challenges you face is identifying the network technologies that meet your needs.
New buiness class Internet services are being introducted daily. In the past regional areas have lagged behind Metro centres, but over the last 3 years investment in fibre and wireless infrastructure in regional and rural centres has increased dramatically. As a result new superfast services structured for business applications are now readily available at economic prices and with the highest level of reliabilty possible in these areas.
Its time to act now.
