Digium unveils a new corporate headquarters to support the company’s rapidly growing open source telephony business. The ribbon cutting at the new facility, located at 445 Jan Davis Drive NW, is scheduled for Tuesday, October 23 and will be attended by several local dignitaries including Huntsville Mayor Loretta Spencer. Digium, which has called Huntsville home since its founding in 1999, is the leading worldwide provider of open source VoIP solutions.
Digium has seen meteoric growth in the last several years as the adoption and demand for open source telephony solutions have increased. Founded by open source telephony pioneer Mark Spencer, the company is the driving force behind Asterisk, the most popular and successful open source communications platform. In early 2007, Digium announced a new executive management team led by Danny Windham, former president of ADTRAN, to drive a bold new vision for the future of the company.
This vision included several strategic initiatives including naming Mark Spencer CTO and head of product innovation; acquiring Switchvox, a leading provider of IP PBX phone systems for small- and medium-sized businesses and acquiring Sokol and Associates, the leader in Asterisk training and operator of AstriCon, the leading Asterisk User Conference. Digium also recently signed a major partnership with 3Com to provide small businesses with a reliable, easy-to-deploy voice solution based on open standards.
