APWIRELESS
From that point onwards , APWireless ’ goal became to forge a new way of working with operators . Critically , these services give operators new revenue options , while also supporting their infrastructure needs .
For example , if an operator has a capital need to expand their 5G networks , APWireless can provide sale-leaseback opportunities by acquiring some of their core assets , like their telecom switches .
And then there ’ s the widespread need for operators to build new towers to launch their expansion plans . Right now , this is being done either by the operators themselves via their own capital or by using third-party service providers .
APWireless instead sought to bring a new approach to the market , giving operators access to a more complete – thus faster – solution to their expansion requirements .
“ We can provide a one-stop solution to their tower needs where we come in and handle everything from A-to-Z , from site acquisition work to post-construction . All the operator has to do is hang their equipment once the tower is built , we do everything else . We provide that solution to make it very seamless and easy for them to roll out their networks .”
In this way , Hasselman predicts that tower developments will be one of the APWireless service sectors to experience the most growth over the next few years .
“ One of the business lines we are focused on for continued expansion is tower development . We ' re currently building towers right now on behalf of operators and we seek to expand those relationships . We are very well positioned to continue expanding out tower development activities and will continue to look more like a tower company over the next five years .”
