The year 2025 has marked a defining chapter for M247 Global, solidifying its position as a leading provider of hosting, cloud, and data transport solutions across the globe. From strategic expansion and infrastructure investment to technological innovation and sustainability, We demonstrated outcommitment to delivering high-performance, enterprise-grade solutions while preparing for the transformative opportunities of AI, IoT, and cloud-driven digitalization.
Global Network Expansion: Strategic Points of Presence
The year began with a major expansion of M247 Global’s network footprint. In February, we announced the launch of three new Points of Presence (PoPs) in Helsinki, Atlanta, and Chicago, expanding its global network to 53 interconnected locations across all continents. The Helsinki PoP, operating within Equinix’s HE7 data center, strategically connects Europe with the Baltic states and the CIS region. The two U.S. locations further strengthen M247’s reach in North America, enhancing service delivery for colocation and cloud solutions.
Bogdan Gavriliță, Sales Director at M247 Europe, emphasized the strategic importance of these expansions: “Many digital services require minimal latency to function optimally. M247 Europe’s global network eliminates this dependency, and the more than 53 points of presence offer global coverage and uniform distribution. Opening a point of presence is not a simple operation, requiring complex negotiations and significant investment in servers, storage, networking, and security solutions.”
Further expansion plans include additional PoPs to support M247’s growing international customer base and ensure optimal connectivity for digital content providers, online gaming platforms, and enterprise applications.
Strategic Refocus: UK Operations Sale
In June, M247 Group executed a strategic transaction, selling its UK-only connectivity and IT services operations to Convergence Group. This move reflects M247’s intent to concentrate on international, multi-jurisdictional enterprise clients while continuing to operate globally, including the UK to support international customers. This strategic refocus ensures that M247 remains agile, reinforcing its presence across Europe, North America, and select emerging markets, while accelerating investments in high-growth technologies such as IoT and AI inference.
Digital Transformation and Brand Evolution
July 2025 marked a milestone in M247 Global’s digital presence, with the launch of its new global website, M247global.com. The redesigned site represents a fresh brand identity aligned with the company’s global ambitions. Beyond aesthetics, the site enhances user experience and positions M247 as a customer-centric technology partner. A short Customer Satisfaction Survey embedded within the site further demonstrates M247’s commitment to leveraging user feedback to refine service offerings.
Leadership Enhancement
September witnessed a pivotal leadership change with the appointment of Alex Baloi as Managing Director of M247 Global. Bringing experience from Microsoft and Vodafone, Baloi’s expertise in digital transformation, international business growth, and technology adoption is set to guide M247 through its next phase of strategic expansion. The transition was smoothly managed under the guidance of Phil Aboud, M247 Group COO, ensuring continuity in operational excellence.
Alex Baloi remarked, “The company has a strong foundation and reputation for delivering trusted infrastructure solutions worldwide. I look forward to working with the team to accelerate innovation, adoption of new service offerings, and to strengthen our global presence.”
Engagement in Industry Events and Knowledge Sharing
Throughout 2025, M247 Global actively engaged with key European industry events, showcasing its expertise in IoT, cloud, and AI-driven solutions. At Capacity Europe 2025, the company presented real-world IoT applications, demonstrating the integration of cloud infrastructure, edge computing, and high-speed connectivity to optimize operational performance for enterprise clients. Similarly, participation in MSP Global Barcelona provided insights into advanced cloud solutions, emphasizing the company’s role as a thought leader in digital infrastructure.
The iGaming sector also benefited from M247’s involvement at SiGMA Euro-Med 2025, where emerging technologies and innovation trends were discussed, reinforcing M247’s position as a reliable partner for latency-sensitive applications like online gaming and streaming services.
Empowering the Next Generation of Tech Talent
Beyond commercial activities, M247 Global maintained its commitment to social responsibility and talent development. Initiatives such as “Empower the Future 2025” focused on nurturing young talent, providing career guidance, and inspiring the next generation of technology professionals. This initiative complements the company’s technological vision by fostering a sustainable pipeline of skilled professionals who can contribute to global digitalization.
AI and Cloud Sustainability Initiatives
AI adoption continued to be a central focus for M247 Global. Through participation in Web Summit Lisbon 2025, the company highlighted trends in AI inference and advanced computing, reinforcing its readiness to provide the critical infrastructure required for real-time AI workloads, including GPU-powered cloud services and global edge computing networks.
Simultaneously, M247 Global emphasized sustainability in cloud operations. As highlighted in their 2026 sustainability insights, cloud infrastructure powered by 100% renewable energy significantly reduces carbon emissions compared to on-premises setups. M247’s investment in energy-efficient data centers ensures that customers can achieve lower carbon footprints while maintaining high-performance computing capabilities.
Record Operational Performance and Growth Metrics
By December 2025, M247 Global had achieved a 25% increase in data traffic across its network and extended operational reach to over 110 countries. The company anticipated a revenue increase of 17–18% compared to the previous year, fueled by a tripling in new customer acquisitions. The Bucharest Pipera Data Center, celebrating its 10-year anniversary, reached full occupancy, serving as the central hub for M247’s global operations, being 100% power by green energy.
The network now comprises over 55 PoPs interconnected via 100–400 Gbps infrastructure with 99.99% uptime and direct connectivity to major Internet Exchange Points worldwide. Such robust infrastructure minimizes latency, making it ideal for AI and IoT applications while ensuring optimal service delivery for cloud and colocation customers.
Alexandru Băloi, Managing Director, summarized the year: “We have strengthened our international position through investments in a high-performance global network. The combination of modernized cloud infrastructure and local access via more than 55 points of presence has enabled us to attract three times more new customers than in the previous year. Both our infrastructure and team are prepared for the major business changes driven by the AI revolution.”
