New ‘Connectivity, Your Way’ approach challenges commoditisation by offering bespoke terms and agile infrastructure delivery to power growth.
Businesses never stand still. They grow, shrink, evolve, and pivot, sometimes all in the same year. And through it all, one thing remains constant: the need for reliable connectivity that scales with change. That’s where LightSpeed Networks, a UK-based wholesale connectivity provider, makes the difference.
LightSpeed Networks agile wholesale model is built on partnership, directly challenging the industry’s trend towards commoditised transactions. The company is positioning itself as the strategic alternative for carriers, MSPs, and AltNets frustrated by the rigid, one-size-fits-all contracts typical of the national marketplace, which has already led to a 40% reduction in average contract onboarding time for new partners.
The new approach tackles a core industry challenge: the gap between the need for flexible, high-capacity infrastructure and the reality of dealing with inflexible legacy providers.
As Paul Davies, Wholesale Managing Director at LightSpeed Networks, explains:
LightSpeed Networks brings experience, consistency, and ease to the national connectivity marketplace. We pride ourselves on being exceptionally clear and responsive to work with, delivering solutions that help to achieve your business goals and targets. With bespoke, agile commercials, we provide your connectivity, your way.
This dedication to partnership over mere transaction defines their entire service model, enabling partners to drive greater value and differentiation in a highly competitive market.
Empowering Partners to Innovate and Scale
LightSpeed Networks views its wholesale fibre, wavelength, and ethernet solutions as engines for innovation for its partners. Instead of pushing generic products, the company designs solutions that mitigate risk, reduce operational complexity, and ensure faster time-to-market.
Key offerings designed for true partner enablement include:
- Bespoke, Agile Commercials: Providing pricing and contractual terms that adapt to the partner’s growth trajectory and specific business needs, rather than imposing blanket volume commitments.
- Merchant Build and Operate: A critical offering that ensures network infrastructure is delivered exactly where and when it is needed, allowing partners to deploy new services without incurring prohibitive capital expenditure or facing geographic limitations.
- Advanced High-Capacity Solutions: Offering Dark Fibre for full control and capacity, and Optical Wavelengths for ultra-fast, high-bandwidth applications, enabling partners to target data-heavy enterprise and public sector contracts.
- Simplicity and Support: In a market where service quality is the ultimate differentiator, LightSpeed Networks’ promise is straightforward: “We adapt fast to your needs. We keep things straightforward, no jargon. We’re always at the other end of the phone. And above all, we deliver on our promises.”
By providing this framework, LightSpeed Networks is helping UK service providers stand out in their markets, scale their businesses, and seize the new opportunities created by the UK’s full-fibre and digital transformation agenda.
