Starting a new alternative network provider in today’s overly crowded UK broadband market carries a lot of risk, yet that hasn’t deterred new player Giggle<\/a> from establishing itself alongside a \u00a3100m investment plan to build a new Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) network across the city of Glasgow in Scotland.<\/p>\n

At present, Giggle (aka – Giggle Broadband and Giggle Fibre) is still in the early phases of establishing itself, after formally becoming a registered Scottish company in early August 2022 (SC740070). The provider, which seems to have three Directors (most with experience in the fibre industry), states that they’re being backed by Triple Point<\/a>‘s Digital 9 Infrastructure<\/strong> (DI9) fund and their experienced CEO is Dave Axam<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The build plan is due to start in early 2023 (the first live network tests are planned for the spring) and spans across the city over the next 3 years (by spring 2026), focusing first on Social Housing<\/strong>. After a bit of digging, we found the LinkedIn profile for the company’s Director of Fibre Build, Greg Fleming<\/strong><\/a> (a familiar name – having held various senior engineering roles at Openreach<\/a>), which revealed a little bit more information.<\/p>\n

According to Greg’s profile, the build plan will span over 300,000 premises<\/strong> across Glasgow and their total investment in the city “will be close to<\/em>” \u00a3100 million<\/strong>. “We will be directly employing up to 180 people to support our customers and network, with the majority in Glasgow. We will also have over 150 indirect employees building our network, again predominately in region<\/em>,” said Greg.<\/p>\n

All of this sounds like great news for Glasgow, but it should be said that Giggle will face a lot of competition from gigabit-capable rivals in the city. Both Virgin Media<\/a> and Openreach<\/a> already have extensive coverage of the city, while Cityfibre<\/a> and Hyperoptic<\/a> have both covered a significant number of premises and continue to grow. Some smaller FTTP<\/a> deployments also exist from OFNL and FibreNest in a few new build homes. We should add that Netomnia<\/a> are also building just outside of Glasgow, albeit without entering the central areas.<\/p>\n

Suffice to say that Glasgow is an interesting place for a start-up AltNet like Giggle to set-up shop, given that it seems likely to face such an uphill battle to penetrate into an already aggressively competitive area. Nevertheless, the provider clearly has both a good team and enough investment, which makes them one to watch over the next couple of years. Credits to one of our readers (Kevin) for spotting the new player.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 6th Feb 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n

The operator has now made a request for Code Powers<\/strong> from Ofcom<\/a> (here<\/a>), albeit seemingly under their Scottish company name – Giggle Broadband Limited (here<\/a>). The request also states they have “plans for an initial project in Glasgow to deploy a fibre network to 100,000<\/span> <\/em>premises, which are predominately run by local housing associations<\/em><\/span><\/span>” (sounds like Phase One of their build).<\/p>\n

Such powers are typically sought to help speed-up deployments of new fibre optic infrastructure and cut costs, not least by reducing the number of licenses needed for street works. It can also be used to facilitate access to run their own fibre via Openreach<\/a>\u2019s existing ducts and telegraph poles (PIA).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
