Vocus Group Limited, formerly known as Vocus Communications, is an international telecommunications company headquartered in North Sydney, Australia. Founded by James Spenceley[1] as a wholesale, business, government and consumer telecommunications provider, Vocus owns and manages Australia's second largest intercapital fibre network. Vocus provides retail, wholesale and corporate telecommunications services across Australia and New Zealand.[2] Vocus offers data network services such as Internet, dark fibre, IP WAN, unified communications and telephony and cloud services[3] to mid, large and corporate businesses direct and also acts as a wholesaler.[4] The company owns and operates 18 data centres across Australia and New Zealand and has an onshore network operations centre run by the engineers who built the network.[5]
Vocus acquired Perth-based Amcom in 2015. Vocus merged with M2 Group on 22 February 2016 in a merger worth AU$3.75 billion,[6] before which it reported profits of AU$62.25M.[7] The merger made it Australia's fourth largest telecommunications company, with 471,000 subscribers.[8]
The company acquired Nextgen Networks for $861 million[9] in October 2016. This allows Vocus access to the National Broadband Network backhaul and infrastructure in Northern Australia serving the offshore gas projects.[9]
Vocus was acquired by Voyage Australia Pty Limited, a consortium of Macquarie Infrastructure and Real Assets (MIRA) and superannuation fund Aware Super, in 2021.
