Green Telecom History:

On 10 March 1876 Alexander Graham Bell spoke to his assistant Thomas Watson the first recognisable words ever transmitted by telephone, "Mr Watson, come here, I want you". This first articulate sentence was transmitted over 100 feet of wire.

113 years Later, IBNetworks was formed by the current directors in 1989 trading then as Middlesex Communications Group.(MCG). The companies Managing Director, Steve Hayden, had previously completed a three year BT engineering apprenticeship and a obtained a BTEC in Telecommunications.

MCG were primarily an engineering company installing telephone systems for other telecoms sales companies across the UK and quickly grew to an engineering force of 50 plus engineers covering installation and maintenance for many of the south east of England Telecoms companies.

In 1995 MCG became a limited company - Middlesex Communications Limited. The focus in 1995 was to move in to the system sales arena and to get things right first time, something that was not happening with some of the companies MGC had worked for.

In June 2001, The Limited company was renamed International Business Networks Limited (IBNetworks) and in this year won the prestigious 'dealer of the year' award at the comms dealer awards ceremony.
