The agreement between Hurricane Electric and WTG will enable Hurricane Electric to broaden the reach of its global high-speed IP transit through a trusted agent like WTG.
“With more than 3,000 agents, WTG has earned a solid reputation in the industry, and we’re delighted to add them to Hurricane Electric’s channel programme,” said Mark Welch, Hurricane Electric’s channel manager.
“Over the coming months, I look forward working with WTG as they help broaden Hurricane Electric’s reach for our product offerings.”
