Founded in 1884 and headquartered in Bogota, Colombia, the company operates primarily across the Bogota Capital District and the department of Cundinamarca, with nationwide corporate network coverage and remote satellite reach. Majority-owned by the District of Bogota, the company operates across three primary business segments: Residential and Small Businesses (Hogares y MiPymes), Corporate and Government (Empresas y Ciudades Inteligentes), and Wholesale (Mayoristas). Its comprehensive product and service portfolio includes high-speed fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) broadband internet; fixed-line analog and voice-over-IP (VoIP) telephony; subscription interactive digital television and streaming platforms (IPTV); mobile voice, messaging, and 4G/LTE mobile broadband data services; dedicated corporate internet access, multiprotocol label switching (MPLS), software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN), and managed local area network (LAN) services; data center colocation, cloud hosting, virtualization, and backup services; cybersecurity solutions comprising managed firewalls, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) mitigation, endpoint protection, and security operations center (SOC) monitoring; smart city and Internet of Things (IoT) integration services, including public security video surveillance, intelligent traffic management systems, and public utility telemetry; satellite telecommunications services for remote and rural connectivity; and wholesale telecommunications infrastructure leasing, including dark fiber, transport capacity, and duct sharing for third-party operators. The company operates specialized subsidiaries including Skynet de Colombia SAS ESP, which delivers satellite telecommunications and rural connectivity solutions, and Contact Center & BPO Colvatel SAS ESP, which provides technical network deployment, maintenance, logistics, and business process outsourcing services. In recent developments, Empresa de Telecomunicaciones de Bogota SA ESP has accelerated its strategic transition toward all-optical infrastructure, actively decommissioning legacy copper networks in favor of high-capacity XGS-PON fiber networks across its core municipal footprint. The company has also expanded its corporate digital transformation portfolio through strategic alliances with major global cloud and technology providers to deploy enterprise-grade multicloud, hybrid infrastructure, and advanced cybersecurity architectures. Furthermore, the company has broadened its smart city implementations across Bogota and secured strategic government and institutional connectivity contracts to deliver satellite and broadband digital inclusion services in underserved regions throughout Colombia.
