The waiting is over. There's a race to bring bandwidth to home and small businesses. The headlong rush knows no national boundaries, either. The "gold standard" is fiber to the home. In new construction, that's what we get. In overbuilt situations, there's a mix, depending on geography or existing infrastructure. But without exception, the existing infrastructure is being tweaked for more bandwidth by replacing it with fiber that creeps ever closer to its final destination - your living room. The BP 100 companies make it happen. Without them there would be no broadband revolution.
The BB 100 companies are a diverse group. Two are startups, just beginning to generate sales. The largest on the list is Verizon, which had revenue last year of $71 billion and income of $13 billion.
We sifted among more than 250 companies. Those that made the list share only one universal attribute: Courage. The industry, after all, has been attempting to bring massive broadband to the home for almost 20 years. Why is the effort succeeding now? Courage.
In this issue we recognize the companies that drive the progress, either by providing the technology, the implementation skills, the demand, or the vision. We do so in the hope that we can help the industry understand itself, and that we can help other interested parties - investors, public officials, and customers - climb aboard.
