Remaining Connected is the key to Business Continuity through COVID-19. The role of Infrastructure
Details
Our ability to adapt to circumstances and innovate is being tested to the extreme. As the national wholesale network provider to over 11-million Australians, nbn takes its access and enabling role seriously at this time – infrastructure and connectivity matter. Join members of the business and corporate affairs team from nbn, as they step through responses to COVID-19 and what that means for your businesses. Going digital remains a fundamental requirement and continues to provides opportunity to create new or modify existing business models, reinvent core processes, improve efficiency, drive productivity and get closer to the customer. And so the nbn team will share commissioned business sector research insights by AlphaBeta, Connecting Australia – the big future of small business; look at recent Telsyte research on the digital workplace in 2020, and showcase tools to help businesses migrate and reap the benefits of high-speed broadband. All of this in the contest of a near-completed nbn™ access network rollout across Australia.
