Interoute has seen demand for cloud services is fuelling its growth, as organisations look for a secure and trusted environment to place their business critical assets. Earlier this year the company picked up a cloud based video calling platform in the shape of Scandinavia’s Visual Conference Group (VCG).
Gareth Williams, Interoute’s CEO, said of the deal, “Our strategy is based around providing customers with a comprehensive portfolio of solutions and services from the Ground (infrastructure and connectivity) to the cloud (fully managed services hosted within the Interoute private cloud).”
