Accelerating growth through tech

In nearly every aspect of life the pace of change is accelerating. Standing still isn’t an option. We can – and must - harness the pace of technology change for good.

Connectivity is playing a role like never before. That’s why we want to help 25 million people improve their digital skills by end of March 2026.

The connections you make will help shape tomorrow

Whether you’re bedazzled by BT, drawn in by the affable fun at EE, or looking for life on the plus side at Plusnet, BT Group can’t wait to hear from you. In this family of brands, you’re part of something bigger. Spending each day connecting for good, learning more and more, and curating the career you’ve always dreamed of.

New name, same look (for now)

We recently announced BT Group as the parent company of our four brilliant brands: BT, EE, Plusnet & Openreach. BT Group has its own identity, as shown on this page.

In the future, we’ll use this when we talk about things like our purpose, our people and how we’re performing. But we’re only making changes when it’s cost effective.  So for now most of this website will stay in the BT brand.

Our focus, as always, is on providing strong connectivity to families and businesses across the UK, and the best possible experiences for our customers.
