One Triton joins London's best connected buildings with Vorboss 100Gbps

LONDON, UK: 15 September 2026 – Here East, the multi-award-winning hub for innovation and creativity, today announces a strategic partnership with Vorboss to deliver dedicated 400Gbps fibre connectivity across its campus.

With demand for ultrafast, enterprise-grade connectivity accelerating, the investment will elevate the campus’s digital backbone to world-class standards, enabling organisations to innovate without limits and scale at speed.

The partnership comes as Here East cements its position as one of Europe’s most ambitious and globally competitive innovation ecosystems, with rapid growth in world-leading organisations spanning AI, advanced content production and emerging technologies.

The announcement lands at a defining moment for London’s innovation economy. In 2026 alone, the capital attracted $12.6bn in tech investment - the third highest of any city globally and the highest in Europe -  while producing 12 new unicorns, more than any other European city.

Vorboss will install a core network node at Here East. Unlike a standard fibre connection, where traffic is carried back to a provider's data centre or telephone exchange, a Vorboss node means internet connectivity effectively originates from within the campus itself. This delivers dedicated 400Gbps fibre connectivity, exceptional speed, low latency, resilience and performance at a scale rarely available in urban campuses.

The upgrade significantly enhances Here East’s ability to support organisations operating at the frontier of innovation, from high-growth start-ups to global industry leaders. Unlike traditional providers, Vorboss owns and operates its network end-to-end, ensuring unmatched control, accountability and consistently high performance.

Located in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Here East is home to a unique concentration of pioneering institutions, global brands and creative leaders, including V&A East Storehouse, Sports Interactive, Ford Mobility, Hawk London and six global universities. More than 7,000 people collaborate, experiment and build the future on site each day, making it one of the most vibrant and influential innovation and creative communities in Europe.

By integrating Vorboss’s cutting-edge fibre network, which was built to power London’s data-hungry businesses, Here East is setting a new benchmark for connected campuses, ensuring its community can handle exponential data growth, accelerate innovation cycles and unlock entirely new frontiers of opportunity.

Gavin Poole, CEO of Here East, commented:

“Businesses working at the forefront of AI, data and content creation need infrastructure that can match their ambition and pace of change.

Here East was created to bring together the industries shaping the future - from advanced technology to the creative sector - in a single, collaborative environment. Delivering on that vision means providing not just exceptional space, but infrastructure of a truly global standard.

Our partnership with Vorboss ensures that as our ecosystem continues to grow, it is supported by the speed, scale and resilience required to lead on the world stage.”

Rhod Morgan, Co-CEO at Vorboss, added:

“Here East is exactly the kind of place our network was built for: ambitious, data-hungry organisations that need infrastructure that keeps pace with their growth.

Connecting the campus with 400Gbps means we’re bringing high-capacity infrastructure directly to one of London’s most important innovation hubs. With dedicated capacity, Here East’s tenants get the speed, resilience and headroom they need to scale without being held back by connectivity.”

If digital resilience isn't already part of your leasing conversations, it soon will be.

Between the rise of AI, tenants looking for greater confidence in the security of their operations, and the UK's new Cyber Security and Resilience Bill, expectations of commercial buildings are changing fast.

This practical guide explains how changing tenant expectations affect landlords and operators.

What's inside:

• What the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill means for landlords and operators
• How digital resilience helps attract higher-quality tenants
• The biggest cyber risks affecting commercial building systems
• Practical steps to strengthen your building's resilience
• How digital resilience helps protect long-term asset value

And absolutely no cyber jargon or scary stories.

Whether you manage a single building or an entire London portfolio, this guide will help you understand changing tenant expectations and strengthen your building’s resilience.

The UK’s old copper network is officially being retired on 31 January 2027. After that date, any device still relying on the old network will stop working.

And it’s not just phones that used it. Copper was the baseline standard for decades, meaning it supported a variety of workspace and building tech. An overlooked line could leave critical services like payment systems, building access or a broadband connection offline.

While some suppliers will give you a heads-up if a service needs replacing, a lot of the time they won’t have a record of what that service is connected to. That’s why the safest bet is to do a quick check yourself.

Here is a step-by-step of how to track down any copper dependencies in your building.

Step 1: Check your bills

This is the easiest place to start identifying services that may still rely on the old network. Look for acronyms or terms like PSTN, ISDN, ADSL, FTTC, analogue line, copper line, line rental, landline or alarm line. If you see any of these terms on your bill, you may have a copper-based service.  

Check invoices from your internet, IT and phone providers, as well as suppliers that manage your alarms, lifts, payment systems, security or building services. This could also include managing agents, or anyone else who manages your technology or provides a digital service.

Step 2: Work out what each service is used for

If you have spotted any of these terms on a bill, create a list with the supplier's name, your account number and the service. Then work out what each service is used for and who manages it.

If you see a service you don’t recognise, do not ignore it. It may still be connected to something your team, or tenants if you’re a landlord, use on a daily basis.

Step 3: Do a physical walk-through

Not every copper-based service will be obvious from your bills. Some lines may be old, poorly labelled or managed by a different supplier.

That is why it is worth walking through the building and checking the equipment directly. Check comms rooms, cupboards, lift areas, alarm panels, reception desks and old sockets. Look for older phone sockets, Openreach or BT equipment, labels with phone numbers, old routers, alarm panels or any equipment that has been sitting there for years. Take photos as you go.  

If you are a tenant, check your own space first. If you are a landlord, managing agent or building operator, check shared areas and building services.

Step 4: Contact suppliers

Once you have identified the services and connections across the site, contact the relevant suppliers to confirm what each one is, what it supports and whether it relies on copper. Each supplier will usually only know about the service they manage, so it is important to check every service on your list.

Ask them whether the service will be affected by the copper switch-off, what replacement options are available, and whether anything needs to be updated before the service is moved or cancelled.

Step 5: Assess your IT setup

While you are checking for copper-based services, it is worth looking at your wider IT setup too. Does it still fit the way your business operates? If you are a landlord, are your tenants happy with the service? Is it the most cost-effective solution, and are you happy with how it’s being managed?

Tracking down old copper lines can be time-consuming. If you’d rather save the time, our experts can visit your building and do a thorough check for you.

The UK is moving away from the old copper network.

You may hear this being called the PSTN switch-off, the landline switch-off or the copper switch-off. Simply put, any service that relies on copper needs to be identified and moved to a newer alternative before 31 January 2027.

For businesses, landlords and building operators, the challenge is knowing what still runs on the old network, as it's not always obvious. If something is missed, it can disrupt critical building systems, customer phone lines and payment services.

Below, we look at the services that could be affected, what PSTN, ISDN, ADSL and FTTC mean, and how to plan the work before the deadline.

What systems could still rely on copper?

For businesses, copper-based services could still support things like main or backup internet connections, phone lines, alarms and monitoring systems.

For landlords and operators, critical systems include lifts, internet lines, intercoms, sensors, reception phones, security and monitoring, or access systems. Make sure to also ask third-party suppliers about the systems they manage.

CCTV is worth checking too. The cameras themselves may not use copper, but the connection used to view footage remotely or send alerts may still rely on an older broadband service.
