Virgin Media O2 and Daisy Group plan to merge their B2B operations in H2 2025 to create a new entity with pro forma revenues of £1.4 billion, led by Matthew Riley (pictured) as Chairman and Jo Bertram as CEO.

Hull-based ISP Octaplus has acquired the residential customer base of Legend Fibre, which will begin focusing solely on its B2B customers.
Octaplus CEO Gladstone Gonsalves said: “This move is a synergistic and accretive one. As we look to provide customers with internet, TV and phone services, Legend Fibre will focus on B2B services. It is therefore a win-win for all the stakeholders.”
The ISP is partnered with local altnet MS3, CityFibre and F&W Networks.
