The business has become a critical bandwidth infrastructure company supporting Europe’s future bandwidth needs and a portfolio of customers who are the fastest growing consumers of bandwidth under his leadership. Brady has guided the company to become the leading data centre to data centre connectivity provider in Europe, with a unique set of connectivity options in both its metro and long haul network, including the development of Super Highways and new subsea cables. This has enabled the company to deliver exceptional growth and success, underpinned by a team with collective company values and a focus on the belief that bandwidth changes everything.
“I’m immensely proud of the team and it has been a privilege working with them as well as our investors, customers, partners and with the communities that we operate in across Europe,” said Brady Rafuse. “Paula is an exceptional leader. Her achievements in her career have been underpinned by her ability to foster strong relationships with customers and partners whilst remaining focused on leading organisations and people. Paula joined the euNetworks team a year ago and since then we have been working closely to ensure a smooth transition as we move forward with our plans and continue to grow the business. With Paula’s focus over the last year on all operating aspects of the business and her customer-centric approach, she has already made a great contribution to our performance in 2022 and I am excited for the company’s future with Paula as CEO. Thank you to Neil for his support, contribution and guidance since joining the euNetworks Board of Directors in January 2014. His extensive and global board and management experience has been hugely valuable to us all during his time as Chairman on our Board.”
“We know Paula is a fantastic leader and, like Brady, has a clear vision to guide euNetworks as we progress with growth plans for the business,” said Cyrus Gentry, Managing Director and Head of Communications, Europe at Stonepeak. “euNetworks is the fastest growing fibre business in Europe. It has a highly differentiated network platform that underpins the digital infrastructure ecosystem and there remains no shortage of compelling capital opportunities in Europe for euNetworks to further build on the unique position it has in the region. We extend our thanks to Brady for everything he has delivered as CEO, and we look forward to the value he will continue to deliver as Chairman.”
