Verizon's evolution

Since its beginnings, Verizon has evolved. From a company that offered regional telephone services to becoming a network with national and international presence. Today, it leads the mobility, broadband, and private network sectors, and it has been an essential driver in the digital transformation we experience every day. 

A clear example of Verizon's commitment was its response during critical moments in recent history. From providing connectivity to emergency teams during the 9/11 attacks to strengthening its infrastructure during the COVID-19 pandemic. The company has shown that it is always present when it is needed most.

Verizon was also a pioneer in launching the world's first commercial 5G services. This marked a turning point in the industry. Today, millions of users depend on this network to enjoy real-time connected experiences.

Currently, it has more than 150 million active connections (150 millones) that connect people, businesses, and entire communities. From families sharing special moments to small businesses growing thanks to connectivity. Each interaction is a reflection of the daily impact of technology on real life.
