CIO Edge Mexico – As VP Partner & Business Development of Flō Networks what are your main responsibilities?
MD- I am responsible for the business development of the most innovative solutions in Cloud Connect, Virtual Cloud Network, Managed SD-WAN, Private 5G, and Cloud Edge to the Americas. I am also managing business relationships with strategic partners like Amazon Web Services, Google, Microsoft, IBM Cloud, Oracle Cloud, Cisco, Fortinet, and others. Overseeing these partnerships is one of our most important priorities as it is crucial for deploying the best solutions for our customers.
CIO Edge Mexico – For those that do not already know, can you tell everyone how Flō Networks helps Enterprise businesses?
MD- Flō Networks has over 20 years of experience offering carrier-class connectivity solutions for businesses. Our ability to transport data from and to the United States may be the strongest in the market, and our network presence in over 15 countries across the Americas allows corporations to connect their entire operation into a single, homogeneous, flexible, and scalable network.
We have the redundancies and support team needed to prevent, mitigate, and solve any problems that may arise, allowing us to offer SLAs of up to 99.95%.
CIO Edge Mexico – Many Enterprise businesses today prioritize network and data security; what makes Flo Networks a reliable partner for enterprises from over 15 countries?
MD- Before going into technical details, successful partnerships are built on a passion for what we do, respect, trust, and collaboration. We understand that and operate by those values. Our team is always there for our customers, and willing to go above and beyond expectations, be it service management, support, and of course, our engineering and infrastructure teams.
With that said, we offer dedicated lines, which are faster and safer by design, with great add-ons that allow the filtering of data. For companies that really value network security, we offer end-to-end encryption and comply with the most strict standards and regulations for industries like those in the financial sector.
CIO Edge Mexico – In your opinion, how can Private 5G Technology and Cloud Computing help Enterprises?
MD- Private 5G, especially when combined with cloud computing, is a game-changer that unlocks tools needed for implementing automation through IoT and leveraging AI/ML into industry 4.0, retail, and corporate environments. It’s a new technology and will only grow with time, but we are happy to be collaborating with Microsoft in offering experimental kits to our customers.
CIO Edge Mexico – Which industries can benefit most from multi-connected, flexible, and reliable business connectivity solutions?
MD- This is all-inclusive. Great connectivity goes a long way in today’s market. From manufacturing, and financing, all the way through retail. Some industries are able to get a competitive edge by lowering their latency, while others greatly improve the reliability of their mission-critical operations, especially when they are dealing with SaaS or Cloud services.
CIO Edge Mexico- What are Flō Networks’ expansion plans for the Mexico/LATAM markets?
MD- We just completed a transformational acquisition (to be announced at the event) that will almost double our Metro network footprint in Mexico. This acquisition represents our third major acquisition after Neutrona Networks in 2020 and Maxcom Telecomunicaciones in 2021. We will continue expanding our footprint and strengthening our network while designing enhanced, disruptive connectivity solutions as a result of the synergies created by this accelerated growth.
CIO Edge Mexico – What can the attending delegates expect from your Keynote talk at our CIO Edge Mexico event on the 31st of May?
