Cable Congress 2010 – Brussels. UPC plans to deliver content to its B2B customers, according to Jan-Erik Nilsson, director product business services, UPC Broadband.
However, speaking at a marketing session entitled B2B, the untapped opportunity…or is it? he was unwilling to provide any further details.
Julien St John-Dennis, head of business products, Virgin Media Business, added that the UK operator had no plans to offer content at present but would consider it.
Their responses were to a question as to whether they would be interested in offering the business channel CNBC to their business customers.
Virgin Media Business was formed as a brand two weeks ago. According to St John-Dennis, it is attacking the high end of the business market through the same network that serves domestic customers.
