In the last round of government broadband funding, the government calculated that for every £1 they invested, £22 would come back into the economy. The harsh reality is that the UK lags far behinds its European, and indeed worldwide counterparts, when it comes to high-speed broadband. Just 15 years ago, making the leap from 64kb (dial-up internet) to 8Mb broadband was seen as a huge step forward, and why someone would need 8Mb was beyond most people at the time...
Here we are again... Now, a 1gb broadband connection may see overkill but for the most demanding of clients, but within the next few years this is going to be the 'norm' and as such the way we work, but more importantly the services we consume, are going to be designed and expected to work over the fastest broadband connections. When that time comes, the vouchers will most certainly be gone, which is why it is so imperative to make the most of these vouchers while the pot of cash is full.

if you work in a business with 100 employees and they're all sharing content with each other, storing files on cloud-based storage platforms and firing off documents to clients, gigabit internet is a great idea.
