Globalgig has acquired leading VoIP provider Velis4 in a bid to provide enterprise managed communication solutions. The acquisition adds hosted VoIP phone, SIP trunking, hosted call center and hosted Skype for Business services to the Globalgig suite of products and services, and further enhances the Globalgig strategy of providing multinational enterprises with a comprehensive suite of managed communications solutions.
This announcement follows iGEM’s recent acquisition of Globalgig. Going forward, services offered by Velis4 will be provided under the registered brand, Globalgig.
Commenting on the development, Ernest Cunningham, Chief Executive Officer, Globalgig disclosed that the company is extremely pleased to acquire Velis4. It provides a wide range of services perfectly aligns with the Globalgig strategy of orchestrating hyperconnectivity for the enterprise business continuum.
The enterprise mobility and managed communications market is currently fragmented, with no one provider offering the agility and ubiquity that today’s global businesses require to operate at their maximum performance level. Globalgig’s acquisition of Velis4 will further enhance our mission to solve this critical need, said Cunningham.
As part of the acquisition, Anthony Jett, Chief Executive Officer of Velis4 will be joining Globalgig as the Chief Operations Officer of the combined entity. Jett brings over 20 years of experience in telecommunications to Globalgig and will manage the day-to-day operations of the high-growth business.
Responding to media, Jett revealed that the mobility element of the VoIP market so far has been distinctly underserved.LTE finally provides a reliable VoIP connection to the mobile device, so bringing Velis4’s technology leadership and Globalgig’s mobile footprint together creates a synergy with tremendous enterprise market potential.
The main purpose of the acquisition is to achieve maximum productivity, agility and efficiency across any device. As a enterprise, your company need a single source to orchestrate the hyperconnectivity of these disparate elements seamlessly, securely and without interruption to the business continuum.
The acquisition of Velis4 and its accompanying suite of services will further enhance Globalgig’s ability to orchestrate
hyperconnectivity for the enterprise business continuum both domestically and internationally.
