Founded in 2015, Conexon offers an unmatched architecture and approach that enables electric cooperatives to leverage their infrastructures to efficiently and affordably deliver fiber broadband services to 100% of their membership. The company is composed of professionals who have worked in electric cooperatives and the telecommunications industry, and offer decades of individual experience in business planning, building networks, marketing and selling telecommunications. Conexon offers clients end-to-end broadband deployment and operations support, working with them to analyze economic feasibility, secure financing, design the network, manage construction, provide operational support, optimize business performance and determine optimal partnerships.

In 2021, Conexon launched its internet service provider subsidiary, Connect, an entity formed to operate and manage cooperative and investor-owned fiber-to-the-home networks. Conexon Connect participated as part of Conexon’s Rural Electric Cooperative Consortium, a bidding entity awarded more than $1.1 billion through the FCC’s Rural Digital Opportunity Fund Phase I auction to deliver broadband service at the gigabit tier. The Connect awards encompass dozens of electric co-op territories throughout many states and will result in lightning-fast symmetrical broadband service to more than 2 million Americans – fiber to 100% of rural homes and businesses in all the territories awarded in the RDOF auction.

Conexon has grown to over 850 employees strong and is headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri.
