Online registration for this event is now closed. For details of any late availability please contact Gill Williams (gill.williams@inca.coop).

Our popular Tech & Ops Conference is back for 2023, and back as an in-person event for the first time since 2019. And we are really pleased to have Calix as our main conference sponsor.

We've chosen the great setting of Chester Racecourse for this one-day event, ideal for a sector that is moving faster than ever before to build Gigabit Britain.

The day itself is designed not only to showcase innovative products and services, but also to address some of the key issues for the Altnet sector and its supply chain partners.
