    Technology, Media and Telecom

    Unison, founded in 2003 by CEO Dewey Shay, is an established company engaged in the purchasing of disaggregated tower cell site ground leases, orphaned macro communication sites on rooftops and fiber-based site leases in the US, and more recently in Italy, Germany, France, Spain with planned expansion to additional markets in the coming years. Unison targets infrastructure assets with existing long-term contracts with mobile network operators and tower companies which house existing telecom infrastructure. Since inception, Unison has identified, negotiated and closed on over 6,000 site acquisitions, making it one of the leading wireless asset aggregators globally.

I believe our partnership with Ardian is essential if we are to become a more competitive player globally. It allows us to grow faster, to expand internationally and take advantage of major opportunities to win further concessions in Europe, Latin America and the US.
