NexGen Networks, the premier provider of fibre optic-based network solutions to the world’s top financial services firms and global enterprises, has announced an initiative to add large-scale enhancements to its fibre infrastructure in the UK. The initiative, which is to take place in the second quarter of  2016, includes plans to acquire a significant amount of datacentre space at major UK facilities, while offering the full suite of NexGen Networks managed service including DWDM, Ethernet Transport and Internet Access.

“London is one of the largest markets we serve based on the presence of large enterprise customers in this market, and a significant portion of that enterprise customer base demands reliable, low-latency international connections,” says NexGen’s SVP Jeffrey Barth. “NexGen continues to be strongly positioned among the top-tier service international providers in the UK, and we plan to develop that infrastructure in order expand our international customer base.”

NexGen has in recent years completed several builds in and around London, including space at the Equinix Slough datacentre, the Interxion datacentre in the City of London, and the Savvis LO4 datacentre in the London Docklands Business District. NexGen’s strong UK presence is important for international business, as London remains one of the world’s top business and financial centres, accounting for nearly 40% of foreign exchange trading volume alone.

NexGen has become a standard-bearer for critically important high-speed fibre-optic service for organizations that require world-class services in points of presence around the world. With its latest UK expansions, it is poised to meet the needs of any of the wide array of companies in the region with its diverse, customizable options that can accommodate any industry and any size of business.
