Interoute Scoops Award for Best Pan-European Wholesale Offering for Third Year Running - 18 November 08
Capacity Magazine names Interoute as winner of its Best Pan-European Wholesale Offering award
London, UK — 18 November 2008 — Interoute, owner of Europe’s most advanced next-generation voice and data network, has won the “Best Pan-European Wholesale Offering” category at the Capacity Awards, held in Amsterdam on 17th November. This is the third successive year that Interoute has won this category.
In the past two years the judges have been consistently impressed by the scale and resilience of Interoute’s next-generation pan-European network and its continued expansion across Europe. This year was no different, with the panel equally impressed by the significant investment Interoute has made in entering emerging markets, such as Eastern and Central Europe and extending its network further into the Mediterranean, Russia and South West Asia.
Matthew Whalley, Editor, Capacity magazine, said: “This year’s Best Pan-European Wholesale Offering” category was fiercely contested. Interoute clearly demonstrated the quality, performance and reach of its network is in a class of its own. Its success in providing services to emerging markets, and the year on year investment to upgrade and advance its network, has kept Interoute ahead of the field for the past three years and helped to maintain its position as the Best Pan-European network provider.”
Gareth Williams, CEO, Interoute, comments: “To win this award not once but three times is fantastic. The last 12 months has seen no respite in our aggressive commitment to retaining the lead in Europe for network reach, performance, service delivery and competitive pricing. We’re delighted to receive this award as a glowing endorsement of just how successful Interoute’s business model is on a European and increasingly global frame.”
