£1 Million Research into Fibre Optic

by Tom on May 28, 2009

Recently in the new, the Goverment have said they will set aside £1 million for research into Fibre Optic broadband.  This is good news for high speed broadband lovers, but is it really enough money?

The £1 million will be split between 13 different research groups, which equates to just under £80,000 each.  In the scheme of things this isn’t much money, so it might not be as good news as it may at first seem.

Therefore, this might be a bit of a PR boost for the Goverment, making them seem like they are doing more to try and beat the recession than they actually are.

I’d be interested to hear your views on this money set aside for research into fibre optics…why not drop a comment?
