First, what is Siemens?

Ok, we just saw the principal information about Siemens; now let’s go to see the principal information of EPM

 

So, what is EPM?

UNE (EPM Telecommunications) is a Colombian telecommunications company founded in 2006, with 100% subsidiary of EPM groups which in turn is owned by the Municipality of Medellín, UNE brings together several companies in the telecommunications industry and serves Telecommunications nationwide.

With the emergence of large companies in the telecommunications sector (Telefónica, Telmex, America Movil), EPM decided in 2006 to separate telecommunications from the parent, to form a new company focused exclusively on telecommunications, allowing you to face stiff competition for which it was created EPM Telecommunications "and its trademark " UNE "which was conceived as the integration of the strategic area of EPM Telecommunications, the company Orbitel SA ESP and telecommunications business Emtelco SA who was spun off and operated as the company BPO Contact Center and Enterprise Group EPM.
