Lumen Technologies Inc.

Lumen Technologies Inc. is a global technology and communications company that provides integrated network services and digital solutions to enterprise, government, and residential customers. Formerly known as CenturyLink, the company rebranded in 2020 to reflect its strategic shift toward enabling digital transformation and supporting the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Headquartered in Monroe, Louisiana, Lumen operates one of the world’s largest fiber networks, spanning approximately 450,000 route miles.

The company’s operations are divided into two main segments. The Business segment serves enterprise and wholesale customers with services such as cloud connectivity, edge computing, cybersecurity, unified communications, and software-defined networking (SD-WAN). The Mass Markets segment focuses on consumer broadband and voice services, including high-speed internet and legacy telephony. Lumen also operates under several brands, including Quantum Fiber for residential fiber broadband, CenturyLink for legacy services, and Black Lotus Labs, its cybersecurity research division.

Lumen has a strong international presence, with operations across North America, EMEA, Latin America, and Asia-Pacific. In recent years, the company has undergone significant restructuring, including the sale of its Latin American operations to Stonepeak and the divestiture of its 20-state ILEC business to Apollo Funds. These moves were aimed at streamlining operations and focusing on high-growth areas like enterprise networking and edge services.

Lumen Technologies is committed to delivering secure, scalable, and intelligent network solutions that empower businesses and communities to thrive in a digital-first world.
