Whereas commuters to Canary Wharf have to put their lives on hold when taking to the tube, the thousands of people from across the world who work in Glasgow’s International Financial Services District can now make calls, send texts, e-mail and access mobile internet while on Subway station concourses and platforms across Glasgow.
Jim Watson, Director, Company Growth, Scottish Enterprise says; “Glasgow is investing heavily in providing world class communications and infrastructure support for its 30,000 financial services personnel, over half of which work within the IFSD. The City Council and Scottish Enterprise work with businesses to establish what they need to improve their commercial competitiveness and state of the art mobile communications is one of the key requirements for modern employers.”
