What we're doing for regional Australia
It shouldn't matter where you live or what you do. When it comes to working remotely, learning, streaming entertainment and sports or simply keeping in touch, good coverage and a reliable connection are essential. That's where we come in.
Investing in you
We're investing heavily so we can build and upgrade regional mobile infrastructure. How will we get there? By co-investing with the Federal Government on projects like the Regional Connectivity Program and Mobile Blackspot Program.
Every Australian community should benefit from the digital economy.
