PROFILE |
 |
World Access may have the globe in its sights, but for now, it's focusing on Europe. The company has sold its network equipment business, which accounted for about 90% of sales, to finance the expansion of its European telecommunications services business. World Access provides bundled long-distance voice, data, and Internet services under the NETNet brand via network facilities in the US and 13 European countries, including France, Germany, Spain, and the UK. The company's more than 750,000 customers include small- to medium-sized businesses, other telecom carriers, and ISPs. After resisting an involuntary bankruptcy struggle with noteholders, World Access has proceeded with Chapter 11 filings.
