About
Alaska Communications is Alaska's leading broadband and managed IT service provider, with a remarkable legacy spanning more than 120 years of serving the Last Frontier. Founded as Alaska Communications Systems (ACS) in 1998 as a subsidiary of Fox Paine & Company, the company has evolved from its early roots as a pioneer in Alaska's telecommunications infrastructure to become the state's most trusted provider of internet, voice, and managed IT services. Headquartered in Anchorage, Alaska Communications traces its heritage back to 1904 when it comprised over 2,100 miles of undersea cable, more than 1,400 miles of land lines, and a wireless segment across at least 107 locations. Today, the company continues its mission of connecting Alaskans to what matters most, offering reliable broadband services to both residential and business customers across the state from the North Slope to Ketchikan. As a publicly traded company on NASDAQ (ticker: ALSK), Alaska Communications remains committed to investing in infrastructure and delivering innovative solutions that address the unique connectivity challenges of living and working in Alaska.
