How do Wavenet and Vorboss help landlords attract occupiers in London?

10/01/25 Wavenet

Busy office space with people working at desks.

Internet connectivity is one of the top three deciding factors for businesses looking for new premises, and poor connectivity can result in longer voids and lower rental income for landlords.

Lengthy installation timelines have caused disruption and frustration for years, leaving occupiers to favour buildings with connectivity that is live and ready to go.

To meet this demand, landlords are partnering with connectivity providers like Vorboss – enabling occupiers to access high-speed connectivity within days, instead of the usual 3 – 6 months.

As London’s only dedicated business fibre provider guaranteeing a minimum of 10Gbps – and up to 100Gbps – Vorboss can turn connectivity into a competitive advantage for your building; attracting tenants, reducing voids, and commanding premium rental income.

Wavenet is a platinum partner of Vorboss, delivering this industry leading connectivity alongside a host of managed services which have been specifically designed for real estate, such as security, WiFi, and meeting room AV.

To help you assess whether Wavenet and Vorboss is the right fit for [your business], we’ve put together answers to the most frequently asked questions about its fibre network.

Attract Occupiers

With brilliant connectivity, available instantly, you are removing barriers for occupiers and showcasing your building as a premium location for their business.

Remove rent free periods

By making it easy to occupy the space from Day 1, you are removing the need for rent free periods, so you can start claiming rent immediately.

Unlock new revenue streams

Wavenet has used our experience working with managed and serviced offices, to help landlords transform their offices into plug n play, managed offices that are shown to command a significant uplift per sq ft compared to traditional offices.

Remove administration and overheads

A key cause of delays is wayleaves – a legal process that can cause headaches for landlords and occupiers. By partnering with us, we can arrange a single, master wayleave per site, or even portfolio wide, reducing delays and admin for all parties.

Why should I use Wavenet instead of another provider?

Sector Expertise

Wavenet is the technology partner of choice for London’s leading landlords, working with a diverse mix of landlords across all asset classes. Landlords include British Land, GPE, Landsec, Grosvenor, Workspace, and Soho House.

Access to an unique real estate platform

After 2.5 years of development, Wavenet has recently introduced the game-changing new platform Gateway – an integration platform tailored to streamline your operations and elevate your customer experience.

Already in use by thousands of users, Gateway is helping owners and operators across the UK create more efficient, data-backed, and connected buildings.

Stronger together

With tier 1 partnerships across all of the key technologies a building needs - including internet connectivity, networking, security, audio visual – you can rest assured that your building will have the best infrastructure, suitable for even the most demanding tenants.

Future proof your buildings

As well as improving your buildings credentials today, we will provide solutions to ensure your buildings remain at the cutting edge of technology for years to come.

What is a wayleave?

A wayleave is an agreement between a landlord, or landowner, and a telecoms provider that gives the provider permission to access the land or property to install, maintain or repair the equipment.

Typically, a wayleave can take months to implement, meaning it takes months for your customers to get connected. Our in-house team will work with you to organise an agreement for a single site, or across multiple sites. This will remove the need for you to engage with every occupier and enable them to move in without delay.

How do I access the Vorboss solution?

At Wavenet, we offer Vorboss’s solution through our specialist real estate division. Find out more here.

Future-proof your buildings

London might rank 60th in the world for fixed broadband speeds, but your buildings can escape this statistic by partnering with Wavenet and Vorboss.

Your building technology will start acting as an enabler; attracting occupiers, reducing voids, and enabling you to command premium rental income.

If you’re interested in making your building stand out, get in touch with our team today and we’ll be happy to discuss your requirements.

Boardroom vs breach: 20 questions every IT leader should be asking about cyber security

Cyber threats are evolving faster than most organisations can keep up. Between new attack techniques, expanding digital estates, and the cyber skills shortage, even well-equipped IT teams are struggling to stay ahead. It’s no longer enough to tick compliance boxes or to simply deploy the latest tools. Real security starts with asking the right questions and acting on the answers. That’s why we’ve created Boardroom vs Breach, a 20-question self-assessment designed to help IT leaders and those responsible for cyber-security take a clear-eyed look at your current security posture, highlight blind spots, and spark critical conversations at board level. Why this matters The cost of a cyber breach isn’t just downtime – it’s trust, reputation, compliance fines, and lost revenue. Yet many companies don’t know if their defences are actually up to the task – do you? These 20 questions aren’t about theory; they reflect real-world weak points that we see every day. If you can’t answer them confidently, we can help. The 20 questions you need to answer Visibility & monitoring Do you have complete visibility of your IT assets? What visibility do you have into incidents and events across your infrastructure? How do you manage your security tooling? How many different tools are you running — and are they working together? Are your systems and endpoints patched regularly? Our advice: Gaining complete visibility starts with consolidating event data, automating alerts, and ensuring continuous oversight across your entire estate. Take a look at: Security Information and Event Management Vulnerability Management Managed Detection and Response Threat detection & response What happens if an incident occurs after hours? How do you find out? Who responds? When was your last penetration test? How regularly do you conduct them? What protections are in place for endpoints, email, and networks? What level of visibility do you have into potential breaches? Do you work with a partner that offers 24/7/365 response and real-world support? Our advice: Improve threat visibility and reduce response times by combining real-time monitoring with expert-led incident analysis and containment. Take a look at: 24/7/365 Managed Detection and Response Incident Response Retainers Penetration Testing and Red Teaming Cloud & modern IT risk Do you use public cloud services? Are you confident in how they’re secured? How do you manage and secure user devices remotely? What vendors are you currently relying on — and are they right for your risk profile? How do you secure your network beyond the firewall? Our advice: Extend visibility beyond the traditional perimeter by applying cloud-native monitoring, endpoint telemetry, and policy-based access control. Take a look at: Cloud Security Assessments Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) People, process & planning How are your users trained to detect attacks such as phishing? Do you have access to expert help in a crisis? What cyber expertise exists in-house — is there a dedicated security leader? How do you create a positive security culture, not just rules? What threats are most relevant to your industry? Are you meeting required regulations and compliance standards? Our advice: Build better situational awareness by aligning people and processes with continuous monitoring and clearly defined escalation paths. Take a look at: Security Awareness Training Virtual CISO Services Compliance and Risk Consulting And a bonus question, with potentially the most worrying answer of all… What would a breach cost your business — financially and operationally? Putting it all together While individual solutions can address specific security challenges, working with a trusted managed services and security partner ensures cohesive, round-the-clock support across every aspect of your cyber security posture — delivering greater efficiency, resilience, and long-term value. We work with IT and security leaders across all sectors to assess risk, build resilient cyber strategies, and deliver comprehensive protection that scales with your business. From real-world penetration testing to 24/7/365 threat detection, cloud security, and expert consultancy, we’re your trusted partner in securing the ‘now’ — and preparing for what’s next.
