VeroNet's Quantum Link Raises the Bar for Brisbane's Broadband
The local start-up’s hybrid fibre-5G solution aims to turbocharge connectivity across Brisbane’s tech precincts and beyond.
How we reported this

Brisbane-based technology firm VeroNet unveiled its Quantum Link broadband platform this week, promising speeds up to 10Gbps by merging fibre optics with advanced 5G technology. Launching initial service trials in Fortitude Valley and the Brisbane Technology Park, the company positions itself as a local innovator transforming how businesses and residents access the internet.
The timing couldn't be more critical. As remote work, smart city applications, and data-heavy cloud services explode in popularity throughout 2026, Brisbane's existing networks strain under demand. The Queensland Government’s latest Connected Brisbane report identifies urban centres like Fortitude Valley and Woolloongabba as hotspots where enhanced connectivity is vital for continued economic growth and innovation.
Brisbane’s Tech Hubs Among First Beneficiaries
VeroNet’s focus zones include Fortitude Valley’s James Street precinct-a renowned hub for startups and creative enterprises-and the sprawling Brisbane Technology Park in Eight Mile Plains, home to hundreds of tech companies and research institutes. Both areas have experienced bottlenecks on legacy broadband lines, which local councils acknowledge are impeding productivity and digital inclusion efforts.
Partnering with the Brisbane City Council’s Smart City unit and Queensland University of Technology’s iCity innovation precinct, VeroNet has secured funding through the Accelerate Queensland grant program to pilot installations in 50 commercial and residential premises starting this August.
High Speeds, Competitive Pricing, and Measurable Impact
According to VeroNet’s interim trial data shared exclusively with The Daily Brisbane, users have recorded sustained download speeds of 7 to 10Gbps and upload speeds around 5Gbps. Latency metrics sit near 2 milliseconds, a notable improvement for applications requiring real-time responsiveness such as telehealth consultations and augmented reality training.
Subscription packages for Quantum Link begin at $120 per month, with premium business tiers running up to $450, competitive with existing fibre offerings but delivering two to five times faster transfers. VeroNet’s CEO publicly stated plans to expand coverage city-wide by mid-2027, aiming to complement-and in some areas supersede-national broadband networks.
For Brisbane residents and enterprises eager to upgrade, VeroNet recommends registering interest via their website ahead of the September rollout phase. Meanwhile, local tech meetups at Brisbane Powerhouse and the River City Labs co-working space are already scheduling demos and Q&A sessions for prospective clients.
Given the escalating role of digital infrastructure in Brisbane’s economy, VeroNet’s Quantum Link could swiftly become a standard bearer for next-generation connectivity in Queensland’s capital.
