There’s something about being a harbinger of doom that can cause the author of that discontent either an element of glee or a sense of “I’m, sorry to have to tell you, but...”, and we were definitely in the second of those two camps when, back in January of this year, we reminded you about ‘the soon-to-be-upon-us demise of copper wire-based telecoms’.

Far be it from us to be like “a leaking roof in a rainstorm” as the Bible’s book of Proverbs refers to someone who nags, but have you given any further thought to the soon-to-be-upon-us demise of copper wire-based telecoms?

As a Telecoms company we make a point of, forgive the phrase, trying to keep ahead of the curve. Telecoms and IT are two areas where quantum advances are being made on a regular basis and those of us who fall behind don’t just fail ourselves but fail our customers, and we don’t want to do that so, on your behalf, we continue to scour the news and study the runes to see what’s coming next and how it might affect or benefit us all.

From time to time, we are, all of us, prone to fall foul of that old adage ‘out of sight, out of mind’. Our ability to conveniently forget things is a large contributor to the reason why history so often repeats itself; much as we promise ourselves not to get caught out again or to deal with something by nipping the problem in the bud, we don’t and then have to live with the consequences.

What is no secret but is treated like it is?

Disasters are a part of life; floods, fire, illness, to name a few. That is why we have insurance. If we sit down and think about potential disasters and how they will affect our businesses, we can plan for them, reduce their disruption and even lower our insurance policies!
