Company Summary

Volo provides high-speed broadband access in emerging markets, where typical available solutions are satellite or low-quality mobile data services. We use radically low-cost last-mile equipment and proprietary network management software. Rolling out Volo franchises allows ISPs to enter the broadband market, expanding their service offering and growing their businesses quickly.
