Salt Lake City — Ballard Spahr represented Veracity Network LLC in its recent acquisition by FirstDigital Telecom, a deal that created the largest private fiber footprint in Utah.
FirstDigital Telecom provides a full suite of business services including local voice, long-distance, Internet, VOIP, co-location, managed services, and fiber-to-the-tower/premise. Since 2000, FirstDigital has built, operated, and maintained fiber networks for enterprises, government, health care, education, and financial institutions. The acquisition of Veracity Networks adds significant fiber networks to the growing FirstDigital footprint across the western United States. In addition, the acquisition brings a Global Cloud Communication platform, which currently services customers across several countries. The combined companies will continue to offer and grow their full suite of telecommunication services with a focus on an enhanced customer experience.
Todd A. Reece and Andrew D. Spruiell led the Ballard Spahr team, which included Jeffrey R. Davine, Jonathan R. Flora, Steve P. Mehr, and Jay A. Zweig as well as Philip M. Dodd, and Jessica DuBois.
