NEAR IP emerged from a spark of innovation in April 2022, born from our seasoned team's extensive experience in operating IP networks. What began as a spirited venture has flourished into a vibrant, self-funded startup, spreading its roots across tech hubs in the United Kingdom, Lisbon, Spain, and the United States in just two years.
Our journey at NEAR IP is a tale of relentless growth and steadfast commitment to excellence.
