Welcome 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.

This website provides an information resource that allows you to both learn and to contribute to this important debate. Our initial aim is to convince the Government of the benefit for early adoption of the NBN in our region. Please browse for your eCategory above and also Register your interests then contribute to our Forums. We welcome your participation.
