What businesses do we support?
We help businesses of all sizes to reach their digital goals. Our customers range from big household names, government departments and the public sector, right through to small businesses and new start-ups.
But regardless of size, we provide organisations with fixed voice, mobility, fibre connectivity, and IT services, so everyone has a chance to flourish. Cutting-edge tech, paired with our network, allows organisations to hit their digital transformation targets – and keep evolving as the tech does.

Our Wholesale business helps communication providers (CPs) and other organisations to provide fixed or mobile phone services to their customers. And we work with more than 1,400 customers to do just that, serving big names like Sky, Talk Talk, O2, Three, and Virgin Media.

We’re a leading communications provider, serving business customers in 180 countries across the world. We provide managed network, security and cloud solutions, enabling our customers' digital transformations.
We’re all about transformation
Digital transformation affects our customers and their customers, too. It affects our competitors and the markets we operate in. It affects our strategic partners and the race to roll out new technology and solutions. And it affects our people and how they serve our customers.
Ultimately, transformation is what we do. We help our customers to embrace the opportunities of digitisation.
How does Global work?
The worldwide market continues to change. This is driven by both rapid technology innovation and a dynamic competitive landscape. And we know our customers’ demands are evolving towards a more flexible, on-demand model – supported by new cloud-based and software-defined networking solutions. Our job is to provide them. We’re continuing our transformation programme to support this, along with standardising our own operations, upgrading our infrastructure, and providing innovative, tailored solutions to suit our customers.
Our aim is to support leading multinational organisations and companies. Whether that be through our expertise, our network, cloud solutions, or security; we’re always here.
