Viatel was founded in 1991 by Martin Varsavsky. In 1994, it went public on the Nasdaq stock exchange. Four years later, Varsavsky sold his stake in Viatel for US$200 million and left the company. In 1999, Viatel's market capitalization was valued at US$1.2 billion. At that time, Viatel's second-largest outside shareholder was George Soros while the largest outside stake was held by the global telecommunications company COMSAT. The European arm of Viatel was purchased in May 2013, by the Irish telecoms operator Digiweb. In November 2015 it was announced that Zayo was in the process of buying Viatel's UK and mainland Europe network, but leaving the Irish network to continue under the name of Viatel. The €98.8m transaction was completed on December 31, 2015. Since 2018, Viatel have driven new strategy as an Ireland & Europe focused business telecoms, cloud and cyber security provider, with significant Irish and global brands as customers. Following considerable organic growth and a series of acquisitions, Viatel now employs over 275 people with locations in Dublin, Dundalk and Limerick. (en) |
