Spectrotel and AireSpring Complete Merger to Form Enterprise Network Platform
The two telecom firms have closed their merger, creating a managed network services platform aimed at distributed and global enterprise clients.
Spectrotel and AireSpring have officially closed their merger, marking a significant consolidation move in the managed network services sector.
