KPN International, the business unit of Netherlands based and multinational telecoms leader KPN, is launching a new way for UK channel partners to extend their international offering. KPN International is launching its Business Partner Programme as the demand for cross-border networking solutions and the number of lucrative international contracts steeply increases. The move will give partners access to KPN's wholly-owned fibre network across Europe which, complemented with global reach, covers 85% of the world economy and services over 26 million customers.
KPN International has discovered that many VNOs, Network Integrators and VARs are missing valuable international networking business worth £billions. Channel partners want to rely on a flexible telecoms partner who has international expertise, is flexible and easy in doing business with. With the launch of the new KPN International Partner Programme the channel can now take advantage of KPN's international network and experience in working with multinational companies.

In addition KPN reaches 180 countries worldwide via 100,000 km of cables, plus partnerships with 30 regional carriers. Partners will be able to add KPN International's data services to their own portfolio of products and services. For many partners, this will be the first time they are in a position to offer international network solutions like VPN, Ethernet, SDH, Wavelength and fibre services to their customers.

That's why KPN offers partners our extensive network reach, innovative product portfolio, and flexible 'Dutch' approach, which we know partners will find refreshing and valuable. It will support them in differentiating themselves from competition and thus in generating additional business."
