UK telecommunications opportunities

The UK telecoms industry is worth $65 billion a year with deregulated markets creating major opportunities for overseas companies.

UK telecommunications businesses are acknowledged innovators and are often the partners of choice for global firms.

Over 250,000 employees in 7,800 companies offer skills and capabilities that span the supply chain.

The UK is the world’s leading internet gateway with 36 per cent of internet traffic routed through UK servers.

Leading fixed-line operator BT is currently managing the first national rollout of an IP-based exchange – the £10 billion 21st Century Network (21CN).
