Opal, the committed channel partner and provider of next generation communication technologies, today announced the acquisition of telecoms company, The Airtime Group (TAG), a subsidiary of CANISP Plc, for £752,360, payable in cash on completion.

This acquisition again proves Opal’s total commitment to channel partners by offering them a wide variety of commercial models, products and services. TAG’s existing customers will also benefit from a much expanded product and services set.

This is another example of Opal acquiring a partner where we have a long term relationship. We will be working closely with the TAG team to ensure a seamless handover.

It has a number of existing agreements with tier one carriers including Opal, and delivers high quality services tailored to meet specific customer requirements, including intelligent inbound calling solutions.
