euNetworks [2] (formerly known as Global Voice Group Limited [3]) is a European provider of bandwidth infrastructure services. It orginated in a management buyout led by Noel Meaney[4][5][6] of the European assets of Metromedia Fiber Network which had entered Chapter 11 in 2002.[7][8]
euNetworks own and operate 18 [9]) fibre based metropolitan networks across Europe connected with a high capacity intercity backbone covering 51 cities in 15 countries.
Their metro networks are in London, Manchester, Dublin,[10][11] Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht, Paris, Frankfurt, Cologne, Düsseldorf, Stuttgart, Munich, Hamburg, Berlin, Vienna, Milan, Brussels and Madrid. They also directly connect 14 cloud platforms with their network with access to additional platforms.
euNetworks is headquartered in London with offices across Europe. In 2018 a majority stake was acquired by Stonepeak in euNetworks.[12], since then Stonepeak has led a recapitalisation[13] of euNetworks as well as further acquisitions such as in Belgium.[14]
