This event will not be afraid to ask the difficult questions about the path to Northern Ireland’s greater connectivity and coverage, and the factors that have contributed to this.
• What barriers do Northern Ireland, especially more rural areas, continue to face in meeting the growing demand for fast and reliable connectivity across the city?
• How can we ensure the rollout of fibre and 5G is inclusive and accessible for all people within Northern Ireland? How is the Local Council prioritising this?
• What unique characteristics does Northern Ireland present as a city that other areas of the UK do not?
• What about connectivity across transport networks and rural areas of Northern Ireland?
• Can we better coordinate industry and local authorities? What role can the Lord Mayor of Belfast play?
• What initiatives or plans are in place to ensure widespread access to gigabit connectivity in Northern Ireland, and how is the region working towards achieving comprehensive high-speed broadband coverage?
