PRESS RELEASE:
Cornerstone, the UK’s leading mobile infrastructure services company, has successfully concluded its platinum sponsorship of Connected Britain 2024. The event, held over two days, provided an exceptional platform to discuss the future of connectivity, collaboration, and innovation in the digital infrastructure space.
CEO Pat Coxen reflected on the event’s success:
“Connected Britain 2024 has been an outstanding opportunity to showcase Cornerstone’s contributions to the UK’s digital economy. We had engaging discussions on the future of connectivity, the evolution of mobile and fixed networks, and the collaborative efforts required to make the next generation of infrastructure a reality. Our presence here underscores Cornerstone’s pivotal role in driving the UK’s connectivity goals forward.”
One of the key highlights was Cornerstone’s installation of a live mini tower at the event, in partnership with one of their trusted engineering partners Swann Engineering Group Limited. This installation exemplified Cornerstone’s capability in infrastructure delivery, marking a significant part of its brand relaunch, which was led by Chief Customer Officer Miranda van Gestel. The relaunch signals Cornerstone’s evolution from a traditional infrastructure provider to a full-service partner in the mobile and digital infrastructure space.
As part of its showcase, Cornerstone introduced its innovative mySite app, designed for landlords to streamline access to its extensive portfolio of 15,700 sites across the UK. The app offers greater visibility and control to its landlords, helping them manage site access and communication more efficiently. Alongside the mySite app, Cornerstone also highlighted its work on Locken, smart locks across Cornerstone’s estate to improve site safety and security.
Chief Customer Officer Miranda van Gestel commented, “The reason we showcased our tower installation at the event was to make the invisible visible – to highlight how we’re empowering the communities we serve with more connected, secure, and sustainable infrastructure.”
The event culminated in a powerful keynote address by Cornerstone’s Chief Sales and Commercial Officer Jamie Hayes, who emphasised the company’s impact across the Four Corners of the UK. Additionally, Pat Coxen joined a panel discussion with fellow industry leaders, sharing insights on how collaboration and innovation with government and local authorities will drive progress for the industry and the UK’s technological advancement.
With five months of preparation behind the event, Cornerstone is proud of the connections made, the ideas exchanged, and the new partnerships forged. The company looks forward to building on this momentum as it continues to shape the future of digital connectivity in the UK.
