When his company Global Communication Networks (GCN) landed on Inc. magazine’s annual list of the fastest growing U.S. firms for the second year in a row, founder Chris Palermo was quick to credit both his client customers and his team associates. “People buy from people,” he says. “It’s all about trust.” Chris learned that lesson early in his career. It led him to win perennial sales awards during the seven years he served the complex needs of corporate customers while employed successively at Allnet Communications, AT&T and Cable & Wireless. But too often Chris couldn’t deliver complete solutions tailored to a customer’s particular situation. That is why he founded GCN in 1997. Today GCN represents more than 150 service providers worldwide. It delivers extremely cost-effective voice, data, cloud, colocation and managed data services solutions anywhere in the world. Customers include leading Global 100 and Fortune 500 companies.
