Hull-based KCOM has been shortlisted in two categories at the Internet Services Providers’ Association Awards, dubbed the “Oscars of the internet industry,” bagging nominations for the Best Consumer ISP and Best Enterprise ISP for businesses.
This is the second year running that KCOM has been shortlisted at the ISPAs as the UK’s best consumer broadband provider.
CEO Tim Shaw said: “We’re delighted to pick up two nominations for our work empowering customers and businesses across our region with ultrafast and reliable connectivity. Winning external recognition like this is a testament to the dedication and hard work of all our people at KCOM. I’m very much looking forward to the awards in November and let’s hope we can bring the trophies back to Hull.”
Last year KCOM scooped the ISPA Award for the UK’s Best Integrated Communications Category for its work raising awareness of its £17m copper to fibre network upgrade which is currently underway across Hull and East Yorkshire.
ISPA Chair Steve Leighton said: “The 2024 ISPA awards are a celebration of the tireless work and effort we have seen from the UK’s industry sector.
“It is safe to say that it’s not all been plain sailing for the sector in the past 12 months, but through their continuous efforts these outstanding organisations have not only strived to, but also succeeded, in consistently improving their quality of services.”
The winners will be announced on Thursday, 21 November, in London.
