Brightspeed Celebrates Completion of its New Corporate Headquarters

Modern Offices in Charlotte’s South End Can Accommodate Approximately 300 Workers Brightspeed, the nation’s fifth-largest incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC), celebrated the completion of its more than 27,000-square-foot corporate headquarters in Charlotte with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The recently launched telecom company’s headquarters on the seventh floor of Vantage South End east tower at 1120 South Tryon Street is in the heart of the Queen City’s vibrant South End neighborhood.

Delivering the Brightest of Futures

In the article, Tom shares more about how Brightspeed began and how early in the process we began sourcing materials for the build. Brenda offers insight into the complex purchasing process, and the innovative approach she and her team have taken to try to stay ahead of global supply chain issues.

Metro Connect and IT Expo Recap

The Brightspeed Wholesale team was on hand at both this year’s Metro Connect USA and at the IT Expo, which took place last month. The annual conferences for US digital infrastructure leadership teams offered our team a chance to network with executives from the fiber, data center, cloud, tower and cable industry, as well as Directors and Partners from the finance sector. We enjoyed the opportunity to meet many of our customers in person and discuss how we can continue building on our relationships.
