History
The Birth of a Regional Giant
Asia Netcom was established in October 2002 as a brand new company, but our expertise, support systems and customer base have been built over the past nine years. When Asia Netcom acquired substantially all the assets, staff and customers of Asia Global Crossing (AGC) in March 2003, the transaction gave the company a large customer base spanning various industries, including regional and global financial entities, multinational conglomerates and global service providers. Prior to the acquisition, the previous entity had also acquired regional service providers that had been in operation for over nine years.
Asia Netcom was founded by a consortium led by China Netcom and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Chinese incumbent fixed carrier in December 2003.
On August 2006, China Netcom completed the sale of its 100% ownership in Asia Netcom to an Investor Group led by Ashmore investment Management Limited, Spinnaker Capital Limited and Clearwater Capital Partners.
Asia Netcom has its headquarter in Hong Kong with offices in all major Asian markets, including mainland China, India, Australia as well as Europe and the US.
