Calix Expands Commitment to Rural America through Exclusive Partnership with Ready.net to Simplify Broadband Funding Process
In a strategic move to support the growth of broadband networks in rural America, Calix, Inc. has unveiled an exclusive partnership with funding solution provider Ready.net, Inc. This collaboration aims to streamline the funding application process for more than 1,600 Calix customers, providing them with enhanced access to grant funds, capital, and compliance with public funding requirements.
By teaming up with Ready.net, Calix can leverage their cutting-edge tools within its existing Funding Consult Program. This tailored program addresses the specific needs of rural communities, aiming to bridge the digital divide and empower them with reliable, high-speed broadband connections. With Ready.net’s powerful portal, the process of applying for and securing grant funds will be simpler and more efficient, empowering rural communities to expand their broadband infrastructure.
The importance of reliable and high-speed broadband connectivity has reached critical levels, especially for underserved rural communities. Despite these challenges, Calix has proven its commitment to bridging the digital divide over its 24-year presence in the industry. This partnership with Ready.net is yet another testament to the company’s unwavering dedication to providing reliable broadband services to rural America.
Calix’s commitment to rural America has not gone unnoticed, as evidenced by its expanding customer base. However, recent statistics show a slight decline in market share during the fourth quarter of 2023, dropping from 3.97% to 3.45%. However, with a 3.42% market share over the past 12 months, Calix remains a key player in the broadband industry.
We are thrilled to enter into this exclusive partnership with Ready.net, said the spokesperson for Calix. This collaboration reinforces our long-term commitment to bridging the digital divide and ensuring that rural communities have access to reliable broadband services. By simplifying the funding process, we can empower our customers to build robust broadband networks that will transform their communities.
