OXIO Adds Former Google and Verizon Executives to Strengthen Leadership Team and Reimagine Telecom-as-a-Service

• Glenn Teuber joins as Chief Operating Officer; previously served as COO at Google Fi
• Adil Belihomji, former VP of Technology at Verizon and CTO at Visible, named Chief Technology Officer
• TaaS’s technology-first approach to telecom delivers the promise of intelligent, scalable connectivity experiences on a cloud-resilient digital infrastructure

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OXIO, the leading telecom-as-a-service platform, today announced that two veteran telecom executives will join the company to bolster the executive team as the company aims to reshape the telecommunications industry.

Glenn Teuber, the inaugural Chief Operating Officer at Google Fi, will oversee global business operations as COO. He’ll focus on developing a framework for managing OXIO’s core operations, strategic growth and international expansion.

Adil Belihomji joins OXIO as Chief Technology Officer after over two decades at Verizon, including roles as the company’s VP of Technology and CTO for Visible, a Verizon sub-brand. Belihomji will shape OXIO’s technology vision and strategy while leading the R&D, engineering and security teams.

“Finding a leader with the experience and foresight to match OXIO’s vision for the future of telecom is rare, and we were fortunate enough to find two of them with full conviction about the future of the industry, acquired through their respective professional experiences,” said OXIO CEO and co-founder Nicolas Girard. “Telecom is the last major industry to go through a fundamental transformation, and Glenn and Adil are the ideal executives to help guide us into this new globally connected future.”

OXIO addresses the legacy constraints that limit innovation in telecom today in favor of an intelligent, secure and reliable platform with the flexibility to bring scalable connectivity experiences and new business models to market. Bridging the technology gap between operators and enterprises or next-generation MVNOs, this global, multi-technology layer delivers telecom-as-a-service while unlocking actionable subscriber insights from the network.

“There are no other organizations delivering on the promise of what OXIO brings to market successfully, and I know from experience there’s a very significant demand,” Teuber said. “OXIO’s focus is building a global, cost-efficient telecommunications platform. We aim to provide simplified yet unparalleled access to any company wishing to reshape the way in which these services are consumed.”

“OXIO is building something truly unique — a global carrier, decoupled from the traditional network model,” Belihomji said. “We’re able to innovate at a speed, scale, and efficiency never previously seen in our industry and our network partners benefit greatly from the incremental revenues we bring them.”

In today’s highly competitive market, mobile service providers are realizing that customer data will be a key revenue driver. OXIO’s network is optimized for business intelligence and subscriber insights so that providers can understand their customers’ preferences and present them with relevant products and services.
