About
Both Network Operator + ISP for business customers / enterprise – operates and owns its own network infrastructure (fibre + other connectivity) and offers internet / leased-line / connectivity services to customers. Founded in 2000 (initially as a hosting business), then rebranded as M247 around 2003 (Source). In 2019 completed a "full city fibre network" build in Manchester, expanding its own fibre-infrastructure to cover many businesses there; the company also owns full-fibre access networks in London and Leeds (Source). Runs an international backbone / transit network and data-centre footprint across many countries (Source). In June 2025, M247's UK-only connectivity & IT-services operations were sold to Convergence Group – the sale included the associated infrastructure and personnel (Source).
