MYNET ACQUIRES 100% OF THE CAPITAL OF ULI - UTILITY LINE ITALIA, A HISTORIC OPERATOR IN LOMBARDY
Mynet, the only operator in the national telecommunications landscape with over 30,000 km of owned optical fiber positioned in the medium-sized business segment, has acquired with a notarial deed dated November 2nd the control of ULI (Utility Line Italia), a historic telephone company in Seveso (MB) and operating at a national level in the resale of optical fiber services, telephony, telephone switchboards, certified mail and advanced data center services.
With this operation, Mynet also extends the presence of competent technicians and engineers in the province of Monza-Brianza to manage its local customers more punctually, acquires over 500 new business customers and enters, through Utility Line, into the capital of MIX, the most important data exchange point in Italy, with 2.4 Terabit/s of peak traffic and 13.37 Terabit/s of total capacity. Through this acquisition, Mynet also breaks the wall of 100,000 IPv4 addresses available, surpassing all operators under €1 billion in annual revenues for both IP addresses and owned fiber optics, further paving the way for its future growth.

Riccardo Barbera, president and co-founder of Mynet, commented "Mynet has always meticulously selected its acquisitions. The goal is never merely to increase turnover or the value of assets present as an end in itself in the companies involved, but first and foremost to pool the human value and professionalism that we find in the acquired companies. Not only will we make the most of all the experiences within ULI and keep the offices and staff in Seveso, but we have agreed with Vittorio Figini, CEO of Utility Line, to remain “in the family” for at least 1 year and a half to continue, together, to grow Mynet in Monza and Brianza and for other interesting future projects to develop together in upper Lombardy”

Vittorio Figini, founder and director of Utility Line Italia, commented “ULI is the result of great sacrifices by me and my brother, as well as all of its collaborators and consultants. It is a historic operator, one of those that started in 1995 and one of the very few that have remained on the market continuously since the beginning of commercial Internet in Italy, just like Mynet. We were persuaded to become part of the Mynet project because it is a company managed by serious and attentive entrepreneurs who, in the Lombard tradition, put people, ethics and the quality of work first through sustainable and well-reasoned growth, not merely speculative. I will gladly remain within the organization to give my contribution to making the values ​​of the two companies that are merging much more than an algebraic sum”
