Imerys, an international mineral firm with its US headquarters in Atlanta, has signed a three-year contract for an Internet Protocol based network from AT&T.
The deal is valued at $2.25 million.
Imerys has locations in 37 countries. Some 50 sites will be linked through AT&T’s Global Managed Internet Service. The network will include data and voice services.
