MAKING SUBSTANTIAL INVESTMENTS
As a leading firm in the field of fibre-optic infrastructure in the Greater Poland region , INEA has invested more than $ 266mn in the infrastructure during the past six years . “ These were investments implemented in two areas , such as construction of fibre-optic networks in the FTTH standard and reconstruction of the existing infrastructure to this standard ,” says Bartkowiak . “ The main projects involved the construction of a broad-band backbone network in Wielkopolska in 2013 , the construction of last mile networks and the reconstruction of the infrastructure in towns and cities from Hybrid Fibre Coax ( HFC ) to FTTH standard .”
During the past two years , INEA took part in a competition under the Operating Programme Digital Poland , conducted by the Ministry of Digitalisation in Poland and won in more than 20 regions . In order to remain a leader in the industry , INEA has made strategic decisions in order to adapt to changes in the industry . Bartkowiak affirms how vital it is to embrace the latest technology or risk being overtaken by its rivals .
