PlatformX Communications (PXC) has partnered with the Internet Services Providers’ Association (ISPA) to strengthen its links with the sector.
Following the announcement of their operational separation from TalkTalk last March, PXC has focused on establishing its independence and intention to become a key scale challenger in the wholesale market and a strong UK Alternative Networks aggregator platform.
PXC has achieved this by providing its partners with access to the fibre marketplace, thanks to its aggregation work with CityFibre, MS3, Freedom Fibre, Community Fibre, ITS and now, Netomnia/Brsk – plus Openreach – with plans to increase this list in future.
ISPA is a key voice of the UK internet industry and working with ISPA will be a critical force in PXC progressing it’s FTTP strategy.
Katie Crellin, PXC’s Head of Regulation, commented: “The forum ISPA has created, and the work they’re doing to encourage the market to work closer together, plays into our strategy to offer The Channel reliable, fast fibre connectivity.”
Krystian Heald, Head of Partnerships at ISPA UK said: “Our association is based on shared goals and collaboration from across the UK’s internet sector and PXC, as an aggregator between fibre networks and ISPs, makes them an ideal fit for our association.”
