Synopsis
Macquarie Telecom delivers a full range of hosting, data, voice and mobile services specifically to the business and government market. Established in 1992, Macquarie Telecom is one of the first telecommunication providers of the deregulated era and successfully publicly listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in late 1999. Macquarie’s two key target markets are Australian mid-size corporates and the government sector where it services over 2,000 customers. Macquarie Telecom remains focused on delivering shareholder returns through growth of its two core businesses, Hosting and Telco. The Hosting business is a key growth platform and Macquarie Telecom will continue to pursue its strategy of enhancing its market leadership position through growth in market share. The Telco business will continue to be a core offering of Macquarie Telecom and the company remains focused on delivering superior customer service and growing its corporate client base. The company’s Metro Access Network supports voice, data, VoIP, DSL and internet applications. Hosting and data are a big focus of Macquarie’s strategy and its data centre is becoming increasingly important, this has now grown into the company’s largest market segment. In 2011 voice revenues continued to fall.
