Regional fiber GELSEN-NET operates its own multi-hundred kilometer fiber network serving multiple cities in the region, presenting a strong opportunity to upsell scalable fiber Internet, dedicated connections, and WAN optimization for local businesses expanding or consolidating sites.

Comprehensive IT provider As a one-stop IT systems house offering fiber, telephony, site networking, phone systems, and cloud services, there is potential to cross-sell bundled ICT solutions to existing customers seeking integrated communications and IT infrastructure.

Local presence With deep regional roots and a focus on cities like Gelsenkirchen and surrounding towns, there is a favorable angle for targeted account-based outreach to mid-market companies that value local service, on-site support, and rapid issue resolution.

Stable ownership Backed by the city’s utilities (Stadtwerke Gelsenkirchen GmbH) and GELSENWASSER AG, the business carries municipal-infrastructure credibility, which can be leveraged in procurement conversations, SLAs, and public-sector opportunities.

SMB-friendly scale With 51-200 employees and revenue in the lower mid-market range, GELSEN-NET is well-positioned to tailor affordable, scalable telecom and cloud bundles for small-to-medium enterprises transitioning to higher bandwidth, unified communications, and cloud-based productivity tools.
