IQ Fiber’s Post

If there is one thing we have learned in moving the IQ Fiber headquarters (again) to accommodate our growth … It’s not about the building. It's about the people and giving them the space they need to provide even better service to our customers. Our incredible team -- which now numbers over 150 -- made this possible. Everyone pitched in to pack, move and set up our new space. And we never heard a single person say "this isn't my job." We accomplished the move without missing a single workday, with our technicians stopping by between jobs to install TVs, connect our network, and taking the time to hook up monitors. Our new office is just a couple of miles down the road, and we have big plans for the space. Stay tuned -- we'll reveal it here in the coming weeks. #Jacksonville #Gainesville #FiberOptics

IQ Fiber has completed our Jacksonville Phase 1 build of 60,000 homes. Less than three years ago, we put forth a plan to connect fiber to Jacksonville residents who did not have that option-- and we are excited to announce that the first phase of that plan is complete. So, on to our next chapter! IQ Fiber is excited to announce we are expanding to the Jacksonville neighborhoods of Arlington and Fort Caroline and to the St. Johns County areas of Fruit Cove and Ponte Vedra. These new builds will be a welcome addition to Arlington and Ft. Caroline, two established neighborhoods located east of downtown Jacksonville. Since IQ Fiber was founded in 2022, residents of these neighborhoods have consistently expressed high interest, and we are proud to extend our network to them. The expansion into Fruit Cove and Nocatee will serve homes adjacent to some of our private communities in the area. We also have plans to extend our network in the San Pablo and Intercoastal communities. Speaking of private communities, IQ Fiber is now serving over 100 private communities in Jacksonville, with many more lighting up in the next few months. We have grown to 140 employees across Jacksonville and Gainesville, and we are currently hiring across several departments.

Our Gainesville Fiberhood Launch party exceeded our wildest expectations. Residents began lining up well ahead of our starting time, and our employees were kept busy signing up people (and their neighbors) for installations. Many of these Gainesville residents have never had fiber-optic internet, and they will soon be free from slow speeds and unnecessary data caps. They also appreciate a good party. We found a great local venue (One Love Cafe) and hired a great local band (The Medicine Show), and residents jammed out to the sounds of Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen. We knew all along that fast-growing Alachua County had a need for fiber, but we have been blown away by the response so far. In short, this great Florida city is going to keep us busy for a long time. Reminder: We continue to have open positions in Gainesville and at our Jacksonville headquarters.

April 29 was officially signing day at IQ Fiber Gainesville. We started a tradition in 2022 when we launched our first fiber-optic cabinet -- we ask employees to put their names inside the cabinet door. Every single one of our employees played a role in our market launch for Gainesville. Even as we were ramping up our Jacksonville network in 2022, Gainesville was in the plans, and we are proud of our new operation in Alachua County. IQ Fiber passed 1,000 5-star Google reviews this week, and we plan on impressing Gainesville with our no-hassle, stress-free approach to high-speed internet. #Gainesville #Jacksonville #Florida #FTTH

As recently as 2014, internet wasn't considered critical infrastructure. Now, it's the heartbeat of our home.   Our fiber-to-the-home network is nearly complete in Gainesville -- and it's going to be unlike anything they've ever seen.  #Gainesville #fiberoptics #FTTH

It has been less than than a year since we announced our expansion to Gainesville and Alachua County -- and we are ready to bring our network online this month. We will start connecting the thousands of residents who have told us they need something more from their provider. We are excited to bring our fast, symmetrical, fiber-optic network directly to residents' homes the IQ Fiber way: with a streamlined customer experience and everything included in the price of the monthly plan. Thanks to The Gainesville Sun for covering our progress. https://lnkd.in/eyzm-n3N #Gainesville #TheGainesvilleSun #NorthFlorida #fiberoptic
