Collaboration to expand fiber network
infrastructure in California and
Arizona, and create resilient,
future-proof and sustainable communities
TORONTO, March 23,
2023 /PRNewswire/ - Today Ting, a division of Tucows
(NASDAQ: TCX) (TSX: TC), announced it is expanding into new markets
with digital infrastructure partner, Ubiquity. Together, Ting and
Ubiquity will bring fast, reliable fiber internet to Carlsbad, California and Mesa, Arizona.
"Our partnership with Ubiquity allows us to connect more
residents and businesses to fiber, faster, while being efficient
with construction resources," says Elliot
Noss, CEO of Tucows and Ting. "We're excited to work with a
team that shares our vision of what future-proofed communities can
look like now, and into the future."
The work is an extension of the partnership between Ting and
Ubiquity that began in the Solana
Beach and Encinitas markets
of Southern California in 2019.
Ubiquity's experience in the construction and asset management of
digital infrastructure networks will accelerate Ting's deployment
of next-generation fiber internet to both the Carlsbad and Mesa municipalities.
"Like Ting, we believe that accessible high-speed fiber internet
is critical sustainable infrastructure that supports community
growth," says Jamie Earp, Co-CEO and
Managing Partner of Ubiquity. "Our complimentary areas of expertise
and shared values made this partnership ideal to build sustainable,
smart city solutions for municipalities over the
long-term."
Ubiquity construction in both Carlsbad, California and Mesa, Arizona began in early 2023 and is
expected to continue for the next few years. The tenant partnership
with Ubiquity is expected to result in up to 150,000 available
fiber addresses across both markets over the build term.
