Broadband infrastructure on the Sunshine Coast

There are many great region-wide programs and initiatives which have contributed to the Sunshine Coast being named a global Top7 Intelligent Community for the second successive year, building on our success as Smart21 community six times in the past seven years.

Long-term vision to improve broadband infrastructure and services comes to fruition

This first of a series of posts acknowledges the collaboration and ongoing community engagement embodied in our Top7 recognition and the deeper longer lasting effects that will continue to drive outcomes for our region well into the future.

Council's Michael Whereat and Vine Networks CEO Cameron Parsfield talk about our broadband progress to ensure our community remains connected.

The Intelligent Community Awards

The Intelligent Community Forum’s annual awards program recognises those communities who are developing inclusive prosperity on a foundation of information and communications technology across six Intelligent Community categories: broadband, knowledge workforce, innovation, digital inclusion, engagement and sustainability. It provides communities with a platform for attracting international attention, stimulating inward investment and building public support for progress.

The Sunshine Coast is now in the running for the prestigious 2020 Intelligent Community of the Year, to be announced in October.
