Fibrespeed Launch Event

FibreSpeed Launch Event

Fibrespeed was officially launched by Deputy First Minister Ieuan Wyn Jones on November 27 at Technium CAST in Parc Menai near Bangor – one of the strategic locations chosen  to be amongst the first to gain access to the new service starting in Spring 2009.

Fibrespeed’s launch marks the first phase of a long-term Assembly Government programme to make affordable high bandwidth services available throughout Wales. The region will now compare with London and the South East for affordable, high speed and high bandwidth internet communication access thanks to a new 200-mile fibre optic conduit linking towns and business parks with the existing high-speed network in England.
