ERC mapWelcome to the Go Broadband web site where you can find out more about the potential of the National Broadband Network (NBN) for businesses, organisations and individuals in Regional Australia.

This is an initiative led by the Regional Futures Institute at Southern Cross University. Our aim is to promote the Eastern Regional Corridor, i.e. the most eastern mainland coastal strip between Brisbane and Sydney. This sea change region of growth presents dynamic and vibrant communities of creative activity.

The introduction of the high speed NBN will not only revolutionise the way we provide services and support new business but provide an answer to Australia’s imminent problem of our capital citys' population growth and housing affordability.


A submission to NBN Co that identifies the benefits for early adoption of the NBN to the Easter Regional Corridor has been logged.

This Southern Cross University submission was handed to the Federal Member for Page, Janelle Saffin on 29 January, 2010. She will champion this to get the Australian Government’s $43-billion National Broadband Network (NBN) rolled out early to the NSW North Coast.


Southern Cross University is committed to the NBN with the construction of a state-of-the-art research and demonstration ‘broadband hub’.
