Vodafone Gets Closer to Movistar: Customers Can't Believe All This

Vodafone and Movistar have been rivals for many years. The competition between both companies has been intense, with each one fighting to lead the mobile phone, internet, and television market. However, recently we have seen how the two companies have started to come closer, leaving behind their traditional rivalry.

This rapprochement is not by chance. It is due to a joint strategy that promises to change the way connectivity is offered in the country.

The clearest example of this collaboration is the agreement that both companies signed to create a new fiber optic company. This agreement was announced a few months ago and has taken a further step with the recent revelation of the company's name. It will operate under the name Fiberpass.

The objective of this new company is to make the most of the existing fiber optic infrastructures, thus improving the quality and reach of the network in Spain.

Vodafone and Movistar Go Hand in Hand in This Initiative

Fiberpass will be the company responsible for managing and enhancing the fiber optic network that Vodafone and Movistar share. This joint venture has the motto 'Sharing the Future Together.' It reflects the intention of the two companies to work together to offer more efficient and advanced connectivity to users.

The new company will cover 3.6 million real estate units, which represents a significant step toward improving the fiber infrastructure in the country.

This agreement also aims to maximize the use of the FTTH (Fiber to the Home) network. It is the fiber optic technology that allows high-speed connections to homes. With this collaboration, both companies seek to ensure the best possible performance for all customers who subscribe to their services.

Customers Will Benefit

The main beneficiary of this agreement will undoubtedly be the end user. Although it may initially seem strange for two direct competitors to collaborate, this joint venture will allow for greater fiber coverage, as well as better service quality.

It is expected that over time, Vodafone and Movistar users will experience significant improvements, especially in connection speed and network stability.

Although the agreement is still pending regulatory approvals, the details that have been revealed have been very positive. The creation of Fiberpass and the optimization of the fiber optic network in Spain are being planned with a long-term vision. This ensures that users will enjoy increasingly efficient service.

One of the most relevant aspects recently revealed was the appointment of Pablo Ledesma as CEO of Fiberpass. He was the Chief Operating Officer of Telefónica Spain for seven years and has extensive experience in the telecommunications sector, which guarantees effective management of this new joint company.
