We’ve built the networks. Now we need to figure out how to run them as actual businesses.
INCA Summit 2025 arrives at a pivotal moment for the UK’s independent broadband sector. With infrastructure largely built, the industry now faces the more complex task of running sustainable, competitive businesses. Operators are navigating profitability pressures, deep-pocketed competitors, and critical technology decisions. This year’s summit is designed to meet those real-world challenges head-on. Through interactive sessions, expert-led workshops, and strategic discussions, attendees will gain tools they can apply immediately. The result is a focused, practical event shaped by and for the people doing the work.
About conference
INCA Summit 2025 moves beyond passive presentations to deliver active learning. The programme is built around workshops, collaborative sessions, and real-world case studies from CEOs who’ve transitioned to profitable operations. You’ll explore issues like customer acquisition, market positioning, technology strategy, and regulatory navigation—not in theory, but through practical examples and actionable advice.
New this year are “wildcard” sessions that break the mould of typical conference formats. Expect myth-busting with real data, interactive policy predictions, and hands-on problem-solving with industry experts. These sessions are designed to be dynamic, insightful, and genuinely engaging—ensuring you leave with knowledge that sticks and ideas you can use the moment you’re back at your desk.

The INCA Summit 2025 is for anyone in the UK’s alternative network sector – from CEOs to technical specialists, investors to emerging leaders. Whether you’re at a new Altnet, established operator, or service provider, this event tackles the critical shift from infrastructure build to sustainable growth.
The two-day programme combines keynotes, panels, and three rounds of concurrent workshops – you choose your workshops on the day based on your priorities. Day 1 focuses on growth phase mastery (customer acquisition, AI, regulatory compliance), while Day 2 looks ahead to future challenges (network modernization, resilience, rural solutions).
The INCA Summit offers a boutique experience you won’t find at large national events. With extended networking breaks and mixed stakeholder workshops, you’ll have meaningful conversations rather than rushing between crowded exhibition halls. Our collaborative format means you’ll naturally connect with others working on similar challenges across the complete industry ecosystem.
Our members include top Altnet providers, innovative suppliers, and expert consultants working together on policy, insights, and emerging technologies.
