Agile Networks was founded in 2011 following a management buyout of the operatons of Telindus in Ireland. The new company acquired the assets, staff and customer base from Telindus following similar management buyouts for other Telindus entities in Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Germany and Italy.[1] The new entity has secured funding support from Fingal County Enterprise Board, the local authority where Agile Networks has its head office based in Blanchardstown, Dublin 15.[2][3][4]
Customer Base
Agile Networks' customer base includes technology companies like Digiweb, Ripplecom, and Magnet Networks; public sector bodies like HEAnet, HSE, and ESB; and large multinational enterprises like Abbott Laboratories, Atlas Copco, and Takeda. Given the company is focused on complex networks it tends to focus on technology led customers and large international organisations based in Ireland. The company's best known project is the development of a 100MB broadband network which was officially launched in 2011.[5] It was recently announced that this network will expand to an additional 650 secondary schools in Ireland, ultimately connecting up every post-primary school at a cost of €41M to be predominantly funded by the Department of Education and Skills.[6]
