Electric Lightwave, was originally formed in 1988, by John Warta, John Rivenburgh, Earl Kamsky and Richard Furnival. The company was formed to compete with US West and GTE in the Pacific Northwest. Portland General Electric was an initial investor, then Citizens Utilities became the largest investor in 1990. ELI became the first company to compete locally in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah, and one of the first in California and Arizona.
Integra acquired ELI, and eventually renamed Integra as Electric
Lightwave.
Electric Lightwave, formerly known as Integra was a privately owned provider of fiber-based, carrier-grade networking, communications and technology solutions, headquartered in Vancouver, Washington, United States. In 2016, the company split into two divisions, Electric Lightwave and Integra, and changed its parent company name to Electric Lightwave.[1] In early 2017, Electric Lightwave was acquired by Zayo Group Holdings for $1.4 billion.[2]
Founded by Ted Berns and Dudley Slater in 1996, the company was a facilities-based provider of communication and networking services and served 35 metropolitan markets across eleven states.[3] The company expanded to serve businesses of all sizes.[4] As of 2017, the privately held company had annual revenues of $538 million,[5] with approximately 823 employees company-wide.[6]
