LS Networks has partnered with PocketiNet to expand its footprint in rural areas. The joint expansion is the first between two leading fiber network providers. The collaboration aims to invest in communities and empower the underserved, and Waitsburg is the first community to benefit from the shared vision.
Bridging the Digital Divide
The expansion allows Waitsburg residents to access high-speed internet with more capacity for on-demand upgrades, bridging the digital divide. The move is part of the duo’s mission to provide services to communities and bring reliable, high-quality connectivity to underprivileged communities.
Shared Vision of Empowering Communities
LS Networks’ CEO, Randy Brogle, said, “We recognize the need for high-speed internet in rural areas, and Waitsburg is the first of many communities to benefit from our partnership with PocketiNet. Last year, we came together with a shared vision to invest in communities and empower the underserved, and today we are taking our first step in fulfilling that vision.”
PocketiNet Founder and CEO, Todd Brandenburg, added, “This marks the first joint expansion between PocketiNet and LS Networks. Each organization shares similar values to provide high-quality services to the communities we serve. I look forward to continuing our mission to bridge the digital divide across the Pacific Northwest.”
