The 300-page book takes readers through the rise of fiber optic internet in the Netherlands. A variety of topics are discussed in sixteen illustrated chapters and eight interviews with fiber optic pioneers and professionals. Writer Mathieu Andriessen, director of NLconnect, begins his story in 2001. In that year, pioneering entrepreneurs in Eindhoven and Amsterdam connected the first Dutch homes to fiber optic. The start of a new, highly competitive market.
Future
Twenty years later, more than half of the Netherlands is vitrified and the market is investing heavily in new fiber optic networks. ‘The Netherlands can no longer do without this high-quality, fast digital infrastructure. The fiber optic industry has allowed many to work from home and the economy has been spinning during the recent lockdowns. Fiber optic is the network of the future.'
During the IBC Lecture, three accomplished speakers cover various elements of the Internet of Things (IOT).
IBC might have moved to December this year but we can assure you - visitors to the Netherlands are in for a treat! Of course IBC offers the usual world-class trade fair with the opportunity to discover new products and services, and meet each other in person for the first time in a long time.
SCTE Benelux Group returns with its IBC Lecture on Monday, December 6. Three speakers will give their vision on various aspects of the Internet of Things (IoT). All IBC visitors are welcome to attend, and members of SCTE Benelux Group will receive a special invitation via email.
