3. The Challenge for joint innovation in
FTTH rollout
“The demand for broadband is growing. The Netherlands now
face a massive operation: connecting every single household to
high-speed fiberglass networks. On average, yearly 200
thousand homes get Fiber to the Home. The goal is to increase
the capacity to 500 thousand new connections per year. But
how do you optimize construction? Which innovative building
methods are available? How can certain bottlenecks in the
current logistics be overcome? These questions are to be
answered by GIPPa, a joint innovation platform that started
earlier this year”
