Matthew Wright shared thisA great team effort and a clear demonstration of the power of this strategic partnership.Matthew Wright shared thisOne huge success that we haven't spoken about yet occurred early in 2021. TCL, XMA and Anywhere Sim joined forced to earn a contract with a high profile central government organisation. It was to provide an unbeatable package for all four networks and a state of the art smartphone to over 40,000 field staff. Anywhere SIM specialises in providing mobile users with all four UK mobile networks on one SIM card, giving the best possible coverage at any given time. Combine this with TCL's ability to offer sensational smartphones at incredible price points, the package was exactly what the client needed. The collaborative approach aimed to provide a device and network service that was virtually zero-touch from a setup point of view and ensured the best chance of coverage, wherever the field staff were located. The successful completion of this high profile project has led to further large scale project opportunities between XMA, Anywhere Sim and TCL!

Matthew Wright reacted on thisMatthew Wright reacted on thisA huge thank you to Ellie W. for delivering yet another impactful presentation for the Anywhere Team. Yesterday’s session focused on mental health—how we can identify it, normalise conversations around it, and better support one another in the workplace. What is often considered a taboo topic was transformed into an insightful, supportive, and engaging discussion that encouraged learning and open conversation. Sessions like these play an important role in building a healthy, supportive workplace culture, and we’re really looking forward to what Ellie has to share with us next.

Matthew Wright reacted on thisMatthew Wright reacted on thisIt seems I am now James Batchelor MBE and have been honoured for 'Services to Technology For Older People' as part of The King's Birthday Honours List 2025. 🥳 👑 There's a real novelty in getting some official recognition for working on something a very long time - especially when it comes as a total surprise, and I'm more chuffed than I probably should be! 😄 It transpires that several of you 🫵 were involved with the nomination and writing letters of support over 18 months ago - so thank you 🙏 Aside from allowing my child to get married in St Paul's Cathedral (apparently so!) and the option of 3 letters after my name (which could just as well stand for Might Be Exhausted) - it's ‘business as usual’ ... My focus this year is pushing harder than ever to encourage housing associations and local authorities - to have more regular contact with their older and vulnerable customers. 📞 💻 📱 I'm now 40+ interviews in - with social housing and council leaders, getting more great ideas for my guide ‘Preventing Undiscovered Deaths and Increasing Customer Contact’ - the next version of which I will publish before the year end. Oh and, the mentoring 🤝 and tree planting 🌳 will continue too (we've just planted 5k more and are heading up this week to get some more video!) Thank you to everyone who has supported my efforts over the years - I really appreciate it, and especially all my colleagues at Alertacall Ltd who have also worked tirelessly to help me make some of this a reality. 🙏 If you are interested in any of the details, there is a much more ‘formal statement’ below. #kingshonours #mbe #agetech #proptech #cumbriaMBE for James Batchelor in King’s Birthday Honours List 2025MBE for James Batchelor in King’s Birthday Honours List 2025James Batchelor MBE

Matthew Wright reacted on thisMatthew Wright reacted on thisDO YOU LOVE TREES? BECAUSE WE'VE JUST PLANTED 20,000+ here in the beautiful Lake District and expect to plant 100,000s more. 🌳 PLEASE WATCH AND SHARE this 4 min video to find out more. I've wanted to do this for years, but finding land and the right partner, who will protect these as a community asset has taken time. Fortunately I met Sally Phillips of Buy Land Plant Trees CIC (another Queen's Award winner like us) and the dream is now coming true ❤️ - We'll plant a tree for every customer using our services and more besides. Frankly, I'd love to have supported the planting of a million trees in my lifetime - so that is the goal and I am fizzing with excitement about it all! If you'd like to support us or find out how we can help you do this, message me. 🌳 Just some of the many, many great organisations who now have trees planted to represent some of their customers because they've worked with us ....

Business owners, directors and office managers, please check with your broadband supplier that you are on an IP-based broadband service. A giveaway is to check your bill, if you have a phone number associated with your broadband line then you are likely on a PSTN connection. If you are on a PSTN connection... These will be turned off by 2027, and you may find yourself without internet at short notice! We recommend switching to an IP-based broadband service ASAP to avoid the risk of your broadband being cut off with limited notice.

Why does CityFibre want the Competition and Markets Authority to block the nexfibre acquisition of Netomnia? If the transaction gets the green light, how will CityFibre get to 8m prems RFS? And what's the solution to the current financial stress that many of the Alt-Nets are experiencing? I find out from Simon Holden on day 1 of #ConnectedBritain. Video also on my YouTube channel: https://lnkd.in/epAb-YaA #fullfibre #Altnet #consolidation #competition

Is the UK government's Local Full Fibre Network (LFFN) plan going to have delivered on its objectives? It's currently being evaluated, and according to the evaluation framework: "By improving access to gigabit capable broadband, the LFFN programme is designed to deliver significant benefits ... For households, take-up of an enhanced connection should lead to improved access to online services, including essential services such as healthcare, government portals, and digital education. Faster broadband also facilitates the increased use of the internet for education, work, or leisure, supporting activities such as remote working, online learning, and entertainment." We'll see what the evaluation report says, but we can get some insight from Ofcom's Technology Tracker, which asks people about their use of services like those above, and which ISPs they use. If full fibre was important for these services, we might expect usage to be higher in altnet households, which will by definition be using full fibre. However, this isn't what the data shows. As you can see in the chart, usage of these various services is the same in the altnet and the other households. Indeed, it is higher in the other households for a number of services, though this is likely statistical noise. [A couple of notes of caution. The Technology Tracker only asks respondents about Hyperoptic, Gigaclear and Community Fibre, so these are the 'select ISPs'. And there will be full fibre connections (both from other altnets and from BT, Sky etc) in the other ISPs. Thus this isn't a clean, FTTH vs FTTC comparison, just a proxy]. None of this should be a surprise to anyone. Much of the industry has long acknowledged (at least in private) that the vast majority of consumer needs are met very well with FTTC. Indeed, filing your tax return, say, is possible with dial-up. Whether the government will recognise this is another question.

🚀 Why now is a defining moment to invest in Gigabit IQ 👉 Already 85% funded on private live on Seedrs (Republic Europe) 👉 Going public live next week 👉 Limited allocation | EIS eligible 🔗 https://lnkd.in/evwrFMv3 The UK broadband market is at a once-in-a-generation inflection point — and Gigabit IQ is positioned right at the centre of it. We’re not just building fast broadband. We’re building what we believe is the UK’s safest and most intelligent broadband provider, designed for the regulatory, social, and technological realities shaping the next decade. Here’s why this moment matters: • Full Fibre adoption is accelerating nationwide, driving mass migration away from legacy connections • The PSTN switch-off is forcing millions of homes and businesses to upgrade • Online Safety regulation is no longer optional — Ofcom and the Online Safety Act are redefining ISP responsibility • The Cybersecurity Bill is raising the bar on how networks are actively managed and protected These changes don’t favour legacy ISPs built on volume and call centres. They favour providers built around managed Wi-Fi, proactive security, and family protection — exactly where Gigabit IQ is already operating. Our model combines: ✔️ Full Fibre performance ✔️ Network-level online safety ✔️ Managed Wi-Fi and cybersecurity ✔️ Community-led growth and trust If you’re looking to invest at the intersection of infrastructure, safety, and long-term regulation-driven demand, this is the moment. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/evwrFMv3 #InvestInGigabitIQ #Crowdfunding #EIS #BroadbandInvestment #FullFibre #OnlineSafety #CyberSecurity #FutureOfBroadband
