Established by worldwide telecom investors Granahan McCourt Capital, X3T launched last year with heavyweight financial partners Asterion Industrial Partners, Oak Hill Advisors, Tetrad and Twin Point Capital.

The X3T platform is purpose built for wholesale networks to facilitate a simple, seamless integration for ISPs, resulting in networks achieving extremely high (+90) Net Promotor Scores for customer on-boarding, provisioning, and service activation. Supporting National Broadband Ireland (NBI), widely regarded as one of the world's most ambitious rollouts of a national wholesale fibre network, the platform has supported the integration of 62 global and regional Internet Service Providers and customer take-up of over 50% within 18 months.

Wail Sabbagh, Managing Director at Strategic Imperatives, said: "Combining forces with X3T provides us with a unique opportunity to bring together some of the industry's most experienced talent and state-of-the-art technologies to deliver exceptional value to our customers. Supporting our vision to expand our ground-breaking monetisation, billing and subscriptions platform, Elevate, and make Fibre Caféthe leading unified interface to the UK's fibre ecosystem and the gateway to a connected Britain, we're excited to accelerate our continued investment and rollout with the financial backing and global expertise that this merger provides."

David McCourt, Chairman of Granahan McCourt Capital and X3T, commented: "For over 30 years, we have been building and operating large-scale networks all over the world, and we intimately understand the needs of wholesale operators. A decade ago, we built one of the first open-access networks in the world at a company called enet and quickly grew it to serve over 70 ISPs. In our next venture, NBI, we continued to build the next generation of our technology platform and now, at X3T, we've used our inherent knowledge of operating high performance wholesale networks to export our capabilities.

"This merger with Strategic Imperatives means we can share this knowledge and accelerate our support for customers in the UK and beyond. As an investor, owner and operator, we know first-hand that the combined capabilities of X3T and Strategic Imperatives provides the blueprint for AltNets and ISPs to scale," concluded McCourt.

The merger was supported by Clarkslegal acting for X3T and Russell-Cooke on behalf of Strategic Imperatives.
