Console Connect Inc. (“Console Connect”), a prominent provider of global interconnection solutions, announced today that HKT Trust and PCCW Global Limited (“PCCW Global”) have combined to acquire Console Connect’s advanced software platform and proprietary technology, including the Console Connect brand, platform, and technology team working under the leadership of Paul Gampe, the CTO of Console Connect. These assets will be paired with PCCW Global’s extensive and resilient global connectivity infrastructure which today serves an extensive array of multinational enterprises, service providers, and cloud applications providers, and will also be deployed to enhance HKT’s world-leading range of consumer and enterprise services.

The company’s sophisticated highly-automated connectivity platform has provided enterprises direct access to an ecosystem of business-critical cloud infrastructure providers and other enterprises with the click of a button.
