As Nova Broadband celebrates its 10th year in business this summer, Managing Director Dave McDonald felt the time was right for them to host an influential event such as this. "Nova Broadband was established 10 years ago as an alternative service provider. Back then, broadband availability was poor - even some areas of the city couldn't get any broadband at all. Now, 10 years on, we are thriving and solving broadband problems for residential users right up to multinationals and are continuously growing at a rate we could not have predicted.

I am very proud of what we have built up so far and look forward to the next 10 years."
