Nimans underlines broadband funding opportunity

Nimans has strengthened its network services proposition by becoming a 'superConnected Cities' authorised supplier - with more locations now added to the project.

The Government scheme has been expanded to cover 50 cities to help businesses gain access to the best broadband speeds available, via their resellers. The project has been extended to March next year having been due to finish this Spring.

The SuperConnected Cities programme is managed by Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK), a unit within the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. It has now been extended and covers new locations such as Liverpool, Southampton and Glasgow - creating additional reseller revenue opportunities.

"The initiative provides financial support of up to £3,000 for Superfast Internet connectivity to small and medium businesses," explained Mark Curtis-Wood, Head of Nimans' Network Services.

"Many of our resellers have already harnessed the opportunities as Nimans is an an official supplier of the scheme. We can help them target their customers and get competitive quotes to potentially save thousands of pounds on install costs.

"I think the Government scheme to provide UK residents and businesses with access to the best broadband speeds available is good news for everyone - and will have a positive impact on our industry and the economy in general.

"Expanding the scheme from 22 cities to 50 creates many more reseller opportunities. We are delighted to be playing a significant role and don't want resellers and their customers to miss out.

"The government is committed to making sure that the benefits of improved broadband services are felt by as many homes and businesses in the UK as possible, to build on the rapid pace of change in the UK's broadband infrastructure, and to ensure that consumers continue to enjoy high speeds, a competitive broadband market, and attractively-priced services."
