GTT network links the globe

Global network connectivity in the modern business era is not just a necessity, it is a competitive advantage.
"GTT's ubiquitous network provides enterprises with a scalable global infrastructure for private, public and hybrid network solutions with the capacity and bandwidth they need," says Rick Calder, president and CEO of global tier-1 internet and cloud networking solutions provider GTT.
Among the world's top five internet backbone providers with the most interconnected ethernet service platform, New York Stock Exchange-listed GTT is trusted for its highly reliable, scalable and secure cloud networking solutions. This includes providing enterprises with private, secure and direct connectivity to information technology applications and services that reside in the cloud.
"While the public internet may be adequate for consumer applications, enterprises should not rely on a best-effort network to support their mission-critical business operations," Calder says.
GTT's clients are found in all vertical markets, ranging from multinational financial service organisations to the world's leading media companies. With about 225 employees, GTT is also smaller than many of its competitors - a distinction it considers a key advantage.
"In a fast-paced industry where every byte and second is vital, our size enables us to deliver exceptional client service with simplicity, speed and agility," Calder says.
The company reinforced its edge earlier this year by partnering with Equinix, one of the largest data centre operators in North America, Europe and Asia. The partnership enables GTT's clients to have private, secure and direct access to the lead cloud service providers available on the Equinix Cloud Exchange.
"GTT aspires to become Asia-Pacific's brand of choice for communication services, whether it is for large-scale internet access or for global connectivity," Calder says. "We look forward to working with agencies and business partners in the region. We will also pursue growth through acquisitions to help extend the ubiquity of our network, expand our cloud networking portfolio of services, and add multinational clients to our roster."
