Creating a Superior Alternative
In 2012, connections brought together four entrepreneurs who recognized the need to create a superior alternative to an aging and vulnerable fiber-optic data communications network in the U.S. Northeast region. These entrepreneurs founded United Fiber & Data, a privately held telecommunications company charged with the mission of creating a secure alternative pathway for data communications transmission and storage. This pathway has taken the form of a wholly owned, purpose-built, green field, rural fiber-optic backbone that will connect Lower Manhattan with Ashburn, Virginia.
