The nomination recognises our mission to bridge the digital divide and bring superfast broadband to rural and hard-to-reach areas across England and Wales. Through our innovative use of next generation Fixed Wireless Access (ngFWA) technologies, Airband is delivering UK-first speeds of up to 400 Mb/s, transforming connectivity for homes, businesses and community hubs that were once left behind.

In partnership with Terrana, we’ve evolved our wireless network to connect even the most challenging locations — from medieval villages to forested valleys — offering a lifeline to rural communities and local enterprises. Our commitment to accessible, high-speed broadband has already reached 315,000 premises, supported by a 28% increase in wireless sales and free upgrades for community spaces across the country.

Being recognised by the World Communication Awards is a testament to the passion and innovation of the Airband team as we continue to deliver on our promise of connecting the unconnected.
