Wisepath Group

We're a digital marketing agency that's been around for nearly 20 years, helping brands figure out their online presence without all the confusion that usually comes with it. We started in 2006 in a small Chicago apartment, building our business on kitchen tables and in spare rooms. Today, we're a team of marketers who dig into data, roll up our sleeves, and do the actual work that gets results - no fancy buzzwords or hiding behind tools. Over the years, we've evolved from a search-focused shop into a full-service partner. Our four teams - Performance, Creative, Automation, and Insight - work together to connect strategy, creative, automation, and performance into something that actually makes sense for our clients. We've made the Inc. 5000 list multiple times, acquired other agencies along the way, and built lasting partnerships with clients across Chicago and beyond. We're proud of being small enough to care but big enough to deliver.

We're building the best way to move and manage the world's money. Wise was launched in 2011 by two friends who were tired of getting ripped off by banks when sending money between countries. We realized that hidden fees in exchange rates were costing people billions, so we created a smarter alternative that uses the real mid-market rate with complete transparency. Today, millions of people and businesses trust us to move over £14 billion each month across 160+ countries and 40+ currencies. Our multi-currency account lets you hold balances in over 50 currencies, spend worldwide with our debit card, and send money at the real exchange rate. We're not just fixing transfers anymore - we're replacing international banking entirely with a system that's faster, cheaper, and built for how people actually live and work across borders.

Our culture thrives on collaboration at eye level, where computer scientists, engineers, business economists, IT specialists, and system electronics engineers work alongside 34 trainees who bring fresh perspectives to our team. Headquartered in Dortmund - the heart of German logistics - we're proud of our Ruhr region heritage and the logistical expertise that runs through our veins. We offer flexible working models including on-site, hybrid, and 100% remote options, because we know that great solutions come from people who have the autonomy to work their best. From company runs and climbing to football, our managing directors participate alongside our team, fostering the strong cohesion that drives our collective success.

We're a global communications infrastructure company that's been building and operating network infrastructure since 2007. Our team of 3,700+ people manages a 141,000-mile fiber network across North America and Europe, connecting thousands of buildings and data centers. We focus on the foundational infrastructure that makes modern digital life possible - the fiber optic cables, bandwidth connectivity, and network services that power carriers, enterprises, and government agencies. What we actually do day-to-day is design, build, and maintain the network infrastructure that other companies depend on. We work with dark fiber, private networks, wavelengths, Ethernet, and dedicated internet access to deliver mission-critical bandwidth. Our customers include wireless and wireline carriers, media companies, tech firms, financial institutions, healthcare organizations, and government agencies. We've grown through both organic expansion and strategic acquisitions, becoming one of the largest independent fiber infrastructure providers in the world. Since 2020, we've been operating as a private company, which lets us focus on long-term network investments and customer relationships rather than quarterly earnings expectations.
