DGtek

DGtek is a Moorabbin, Victoria-based telecommunications infrastructure company that builds and operates independent full-fiber optic networks to deliver wholesale broadband connectivity across Australia. Operating as an overhead fiber-to-the-home provider, the licensed carrier utilizes patented Gigabit Passive Optical Network technology and maintains a private IP backbone to service both residential and commercial markets. The enterprise generates under $5 million in annual revenue with a workforce of 28 employees, retailing its network capacity through telecommunications partners such as Spirit Telecom and Exetel. To finance its infrastructure expansion and the recent acquisition of FG Telecom, the company secured over $7 million in Series A funding. This capital raise was backed by institutional investors including MA Financial and Treia Capital to support a target of reaching one million premises. DGtek was founded in 2014 by David Klizhov and Richard Graber.
