The managements of both companies were received also by the president and vice-president of Macedonian government, Vlado Buckovski in Radmila Šekerinska. By acquiring the internet service provider On.net, we have actually started to realise our strategic decision about expansion to foreign markets. In this era of new technological revolution in telecommunications, offering numerous new opportunities, this acquisition demonstrates also the new development paradigm of our company and its group. Telekom Slovenije counts on great synergic influences and, in particular, on transfer of know-how related to the introduction of broadband technologies and services to the Macedonian market. On.net is the second largest internet service provider in Macedonia, providing dial-up, ADSL broadband and wireless Wi-Fi access to internet. On.net is well known for its planned project of establishing the largest Wi-Fi network in the world, which is expected to cover 95% of Macedonian population by means of the so-called mesh technology. On.net expects to become the leading alternative provider of fixed voice telephony in Macedonia. Within this objective, they will become an important player in the market of international call termination. Last year, this company with 70 employees generated revenues of 1 billion Slovenian tolars. |
