Brad Howarth and Janelle Ledwidge are pleased to announce the official release of their new book, A Faster Future – The future of broadband: what it means for business, society and you.

Featuring insights from more than 100 leading executives, entrepreneurs, researchers and commentators from Australia and around the world, A Faster Future is an exploration of the future possibilities for online applications and services.

As broadband services become faster and more ubiquitous, they will give rise to a host of new services that will impact the way we live our professional and personal lives, and will change society as a whole. At the same time, new technologies will influence the way that we interact with the online world, creating even more opportunities for new services. This book explores those changes.

A Faster Future has been written to inspire people to think about the future of broadband applications and services and the changes to come, and to help them prepare for the challenges and identify the new opportunities that lie ahead. It is also designed to inform young people of the opportunities presented by a career in the IT industry.
