More businesses in Wales eligible for funding to go Superfast

Changes by the Welsh Government to the Access Broadband Cymru Scheme and Ultrafast Connectivity scheme will make it more affordable to benefit from faster broadband speeds. Businesses who have faster broadband can benefit from improved productivity and reduced costs in other areas of the businesses , for example via VoIP.

For two years, the Access Broadband Scheme will be available to all homes and businesses across Wales which currently do not have a superfast connection. The scheme will fund or part fund installation which deliver a step change in  download speeds, £400 for download speeds of 10Mbps and £800 for  30Mbps and above.

The Ultrafast Connectivity scheme is now available to all businesses across Wales to help meet the initial installation costs involved in installing ultrafast broadband services.  The maximum grant available will be £10,000.
