Indiana Races Ahead with Brightspeed's Lightning-Fast Internet; 60K Fiber-Enabled Hoosier Locations So Far

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Feb. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Brightspeed, the nation's third-largest fiber broadband builder focused on empowering more homes and businesses with ultrafast, reliable internet, is ready to connect an initial 60,000 locations across 30 communities in Indiana to its multi-gig-speed fiber network.
