GigaBeam Networks has been named the winner of the Collins Marketing Innovation Award presented by Calix. The award recognizes the company’s efforts to better understand its customers, strengthen community connections, and create a more personal internet experience.
“We are honored to receive this recognition from Calix,” said Michael Clemons, CEO of GigaBeam Networks. “We want to thank all of our subscribers who put their trust in GigaBeam Networks. Their support helps make our continued growth possible, and we look forward to bringing fast, reliable internet and local service to more homes and businesses throughout our region.”
GigaBeam’s approach begins with listening. Working with Calix, the company gathered customer feedback to understand what residents value most from their internet provider. That feedback reinforced the importance of dependable service, helpful local support, and a provider with a connection to the community.
Those priorities have helped shape how GigaBeam communicates with customers and introduces its services. Through customer stories, community outreach, and information tailored to everyday needs, the company is helping residents understand how its services can support working from home, learning online, enjoying entertainment, and staying connected with family and friends.
For GigaBeam, this recognition is also an opportunity to look ahead. The company serves communities in Grayson, Bland, and Montgomery counties in Virginia and Logan and Mingo counties in West Virginia. Network construction is actively underway in portions of these areas as GigaBeam works to bring fast, reliable internet to more residents.
As that work continues, GigaBeam remains focused on delivering an experience backed by local people who understand the communities they serve. The company looks forward to welcoming new customers, strengthening existing relationships, and helping more households connect to the opportunities reliable internet makes possible.
