Bill Major, CEO of FiberLight, was recently featured in Fierce Network, where he discussed the evolving landscape of long-haul fiber networks in the United States and the strategic role of FiberLight in this dynamic sector. Major’s inclusion in the piece came about from predictions he was making on the state of the fiber industry, which was included in the published article.
“There has to be some rigor and discipline to not allow everybody to overbuild themselves,” Major said. He thinks a lot of the newer players who haven’t built fiber networks before will enter the market because of BEAD, but then they will make mistakes and get themselves into financially untenable situations. FiberLight will be looking for those distressed companies.
“If we’re patient with our dry powder, it gives us a huge opportunity to buy up those assets,” he concluded. 
For a more in-depth look at how FiberLight is adapting to and shaping the future of telecommunications infrastructure, read the full article “What’s the status of long-haul network builds in the US?” in Fierce Network.
