Possibility. Light. Opportunity. These are the three words fibre leaders around the world chose to describe what fibre means to them.
Today marks Gimme Fibre Day. Every 4 November, fibre councils across the globe join forces through the Fibre Councils Global Alliance (FCGA) to celebrate the birthday of Dr Charles Kao, whose pioneering work made fibre optic communications a reality.
In this year’s video, voices from Europe, Africa, the Middle East, North America and Asia Pacific share their view on fibre. They speak from very different markets, yet they agree on one thing. Fibre gives people and businesses the same opportunity to participate in the digital economy, no matter where they live or work.
We would like to thank Kholoud Aldorgham, Juanita Clark, Gary Bolton, Frank Jaffer and our Director General Vincent Garnier for their contributions.
