The annual Connected Britain Awards 2026 (Total Telecom) event took place at the end of last week, which among other things saw alternative full fibre ISP Connect Fibre scoop the “Broadband Provider of the Year” award, while Viberoptix (Fibrus) won the “Infrastructure Builder of the Year” award and VodafoneThree was handed the “Strategic Deal of the Year Award“ for their merger.
All of the organisations that entered – spanning across various different categories – were assessed by a large panel of judges, which included key figures from various analyst firms, consultants, network operators, universities and other companies or organisations with industry links.
The final list includes a limited but useful description of why each winner was chosen. The results were actually announced at the end of last week, but there was virtually no PR about it and so we only found out the results today.
