We\u2019re proud to share that Steve Flavell, LoopUp\u2019s co-founder and co-CEO, has been featured in an in-depth interview with ValiantCEO Magazine<\/em>. The conversation explores how LoopUp has evolved from early innovations in conference calling to becoming a global leader in multinational cloud telephony for Microsoft Teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the interview, Steve explains how LoopUp responded to the rapid shifts brought on by the pandemic. As the market for traditional conference calling was decimated, the company made a bold pivot. Recognizing that enterprise communications were consolidating into platforms like Microsoft Teams, LoopUp built a solution that gives global businesses a better way to manage voice infrastructure, centrally, consistently, and with far greater agility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, LoopUp provides telephony services in more countries than any other provider. Steve points to a fundamental shift in thinking. Rather than managing telecoms country by country, enterprises now have the option to consolidate under a single global service model. This streamlines operations, reduces complexity, and supports hybrid working at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steve also highlights LoopUp One, the company\u2019s centralized management portal, as a breakthrough for multinational IT teams. With this platform, enterprises can view and control their global estate of phone numbers, manage provisioning, track usage, handle support, and consolidate billing, all from one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking ahead, the interview touches on major trends reshaping the communications space. Steve points to the growing integration of telephony into unified platforms like Teams and Zoom. As voice becomes part of the digital collaboration fabric, it also becomes part of the enterprise data set, unlocking new AI opportunities and deeper operational insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steve\u2019s reflections offer a clear message. Global voice infrastructure does not need to be fragmented or complex. With the right technology and approach, it can be unified, flexible, and future ready. You can read the full interview on ValiantCEO Magazine here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
