ONI is a Portuguese telecommunications company that operates exclusively in the business-to-business market; its clients are Portuguese companies, public entities and international telecommunication companies.

The main services that ONI provides are: Communications (private networks, internet, fixed and mobile voice), IT Solutions (Data Center, Cloud, Electronic and Physical Security). The services of the portfolio include not only designing a personalized solution for each client, but also continuously managing the implemented services.

ONI´s shareholders have been Apax France and Fortino Capital since September 2015. These groups also own NOWO, a Portuguese telecommunications company that operates in the residential market.

Oni was founded in 1998 and owes its creation to the liberalization of the Portuguese telecommunications market. The original shareholders were the four biggest national economic groups – EDP, Millenium BCP, Brisa and Galp Energia . During its first 4 years of activity, ONI operated not only in the business-to-business market but also in the business-to-consumer market.  

Oni is deeply connected to the onset of the Next Generation Networks (NGN) in Portugal, which had a big boost in 2009.These networks proved to be fundamental in meeting the needs of corporate customers and, since then, Oni has been exploring its own NGN.

In 2008 Oni was completely acquired by The Riverside Company and Gestmin, leaving its position as a generalist operator to exclusively focus in the corporate and operator segments. Since then, the company operates under the brand Oni Communications.

Between 2009 and 2011, the company was considered by Exame magazine as “One of the Best Companies to Work For”, being the only telecommunications operator on the ranking.

In August 2013, its total capital was acquired by Altice, and in September 2015 was sold to Apax France and Fortino Capital.
