“Open Fiber brings the fiber home – declares the Regional Manager of West Lombardy of Open Fiber, Antonio Chiesa – with performances that cannot be compared to other technologies, thus laying the foundations for a real smart city. Seregno is another important element for the company in Lombardy, a region where we are proposing a very valid development model, thanks to an investment of almost 500 million euros in areas with market success. In close collaboration with the municipal administration, we will try to limit any kind of inconvenience for citizens. Our goal is to deliver a future-proof network to the city, which can, for example, enable access to advanced public administration services, smart working, online streaming in HD, and many other applications".
