Laying smart city foundations

We are vastly improving public services, by facilitating high-speed, high capacity full fibre networks.

Challenges & opportunities for smart cities

What is a smart city?

Smart cities are built on high capacity, ultra-resilient fibre networks. They are places where digital technologies are deployed to do more than just improve the use of resources and reduce emissions.

To achieve smart city ideals, an area must harness information to create safer communities, with improved urban transportation, energy efficiency and a better environment for businesses and inhabitants. Everything is focused on promoting sustainable economic growth while improving the quality of life for all.

This can only be achieved when a city is built on a powerful, reliable, efficient network infrastructure. That’s why Neos Networks partners with local authorities to transform regions and improve the delivery of public services. From council buildings, GP surgeries and fire stations, to schools, museums and village halls, we help equip communities for the ever-growing demands of the digital economy.
