It all started in a telecom course at Polytechnique Montréal back in 2007. Three boys without a worry in the world had this crazy idea of starting a business and competing with the biggest telecom companies:

Videotron, Bell, Telus, Rogers, Cogeco, etc.

In order to do that, they had to start by finding a client.

Rumor has it that for 2 years, the founders of Fibrenoire fed exclusively on Kraft Dinner in order to build their own fibre optic network.

It is precisely thanks to this dedication that a very first business signed with Fibrenoire in 2007.

(This first customer is still a happy camper until this day. The Kraft Dinner, however, quickly gave way to daily deliveries of fresh fruit to our offices, which has made our happy employees ever so healthy!)

Fibrenoire was looking for an investor who shared its values and could support its next phase of growth.

That’s how Novacap came to invest in Fibrenoire and became a shareholder of the geekiest company in town.

“Absorb what is useful; discard what is not; add what is uniquely your own,” said the glorious Bruce Lee.

Fibrenoire continued to grow and acquired SRDP, RHRI, and P2P (compagnies specialized in telecommunications and Internet access technologies) as well as Pixel Web (a telecom company). This gave way to a larger-than-life growth of 4004% since 2008.

On the 6th of January 2016, Fibrenoire joined the Videotron family who wanted to invest in our unique approach and our expertise.

Fibrenoire became the flagship brand for Videotron’s large business segment.

This union enables both companies to work together to better meet the evolving business needs when it comes to connectivity services.

Oh and by the way, we suspect that more than half of our employees know how to speak Klingon.

(So yes, Fibrenoire remains as geeky as ever!)
