Australasia's telecommunications daily since 1994

IN THIS ISSUE

Communications minister Malcolm Turnbull has revealed that the federal government will shortly release a wide-ranging innovation statement in its bid to cement Australia as a global location of choice for advanced ICT research and development and commercialisation. The document will see the government attempting to create an environment where innovation can thrive, including a strategy to address current employee scheme share arrangements and their effect on startups, as previously flagged by the minister. 

iiNet has acquired a 60% interest in the Tech2 Group, a provider of technical services to both residential and business customers. The two groups plan to partner on customer service and home installations, particularly in the area of NBN services. 

Cloud communication services provider Solgari has set up a regional office in Sydney to support its growing customer base across Asia Pacific. The Irish company was part of the just- completed Enterprise Ireland Trade and Investment Mission to Australia. 

When it comes to broadband services that can satisfy the consumption habits of US homes, there is little competitive choice in the market place, according to US Federal Communications Commission chairman Tom Wheeler.
