The UK Wireless Internet Service Providers Association (UKWISPA), which is the official trade body for wireless broadband ISPs, WiFi hotspot providers and associated networks, recently unveiled the winners of their annual awards event – the UKWISPA Awards 2024.
The annual event is naturally intended to celebrate the best wireless internet providers across the sector, although quite a few of this year’s winners have increasingly started to focus on FTTP instead of wireless builds – often via a complementary approach.
Sadly, the organisation’s award page reveals nothing about how the awards themselves were chosen or judged (i.e. take them with a pinch of salt), which makes it difficult to cover them. But the headline winners seemed to be Quickline and Voneus, which are jointly listed as having won the award for ‘Best Hybrid Fibre / Wireless Project‘. The rest of the winners can be found below.
