The move is part of a five year plan to grow the business further following an already rapid expansion. “The new premises provides the space we need to house our growing reseller team and integrate our technical teams. Over the next five Years Venus mission is to become the UK’s most reseller centric network operator by delivering first class customer service through dedicated account teams and state of the art fibre optic leased lines with leading connectivity speeds,” said Brian Iddon, Venus Business Communications' Director.
Venus began adopting a partnership approach with resellers two years ago while systematically growing their network. It now has 28 points of presence across London, passes hundreds of thousands of London postcodes, covers 19 exchange areas where fibre can be offered to premises, and passes through every main London data centre. “The move to fibre is being driven by more connected devices and smaller businesses taking their IT infrastructure into the cloud. This requires better communications to access the cloud and therefore a powerful network is needed. This provides real opportunities for resellers that we are helping them capitalise upon and as a result growing in partnership with them,” reveals Brian.
Abolishing Excess Construction Costs (ECCs) and the launch of the Venus Partner Advantage Programme have been the most recent initiatives that have contributed to more resellers dealing with Venus.
“Our flagship reseller programme coupled with high levels of technical support and expertise that ensure we are at the cutting edge of connectivity speeds are key factors in driving the business forward. Our new home in Oxford street provides the ideal base for us to take on the challenges the next five years brings,” says Brian.
