ABOUT US

Recent global events have demonstrated the critical role of telecoms networks in modern economies enabling us to work, play and stay in touch.

Over the last few years Intelligens Consulting has witnessed a dramatic increase in investment in communications networks particularly with the arrival of full fibre, 5G networks and the Internet of Things (IoT).

We understand the importance of fibre, 5G and IoT networks to future smart cities and the role digital infrastructure plays in job creation and economic prosperity.

Intelligens Consulting has advised local and transport authorities on attracting infrastructure investment in IoT, fibre, WiFi and 4G/5G networks carefully navigating telecoms legislation and State-aid.

Our team has led pioneering 'barrier busting' projects and innovative ‘anchor tenancy’ interventions for local authorities to accelerate the roll out of fibre and 5G networks that will underpin our future smart cities.

We have supported investors to invest in resilient subsea fibre connectivity and have advised infrastructure investors and development banks across Africa and Asia to deploy towers to improve 4G connectivity in rural areas.

Intelligens Consulting is respected internationally for the exceptional quality of our work, our independence and the flexibility of our team in responding to client needs.
