Virgin Media is now at The O2 and plans to install its hyperfast gigabit broadband network immediately.
A new experimental studio is set to open at the arena this summer and Virgin Media O2 has ambitions to make The O2 the best connected entertainment venue in the UK.
Through Virgin Media’s partnership with The O2, the brand plans to bring innovative connected experiences for customers at its experimental studio space that showcases its products and services.
