ATRIA CONVERGENCE Technologies (ACT Fibernet), with 7,500 employees, is among India's largest optic fiber-focused, wired broadband service provider with 2.14 million subscribers. Unlike Reliance Jio (8.33 million) and Bharti Airtel (6.12 million), which have fixed broadband subscribers nationally, ACT Fibernet offers services largely in south India, focusing on Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu and Delhi, with speeds ranging from 50 mbps to 1 gbps. It recently expanded to Ahmedabad and Jaipur.

ACT Fibernet is keeping employees connected and engaged through various means. One example is the social collaboration platform, Workplaces by Facebook, which makes it possible for the company to pass on any message to employees, no matter where they are.
