Northern Ireland's experience with first generation broadband showed that it is an essential factor in stimulating the growth of new business and in maintaining competitiveness in an increasingly global economy.

But now, thanks to the next generation broadband network being deployed across the region by BT on behalf of the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Investment, even greater economic benefits are quickly becoming evident.
