  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. The Internet has delivered unprecedented access to information on a truly global basis. However the delivery mechanism is creating a digital-divide that is benefiting a section of the population to the detriment of others. The UK government and industry is making it its business to redress the balance by exploiting wireless technology to close the digital-divide and create a better environment for business and to empower all citizens with access to information. Libera is part of this revolution - providing the first wave of powerful symmetrical broadband to businesses that are not well served by the current broadband networks.
