The fourth annual UK Fibre Awards event was held yesterday in London, which saw a number of broadband ISPs and full fibre network builders across several categories pick up awards for their achievements. Some of this year’s winners included Gigaclear for ‘Best Rural Fibre Provider’ and MS3 for ‘Best Overall Fibre Provider’ (they scooped several wins).
The event, which appears to be quite similar to many existing industry award ceremonies (e.g. the annual ISPA and Connected Britain awards), is currently being backed by telecoms / ICT centric media and event organisation firm BPL Business Media.
The winners for each category were chosen by a judging panel of seven industry and IT experts (here), including various senior managers, analysts and so forth. But as with previous years, there’s not much to reflect the consumer perspective in this group, and no technical testing was performed.
