DTC International attracts funding from Northamptonshire Enterprise Partnership INV-ENT program.
DTC International Ltd has again
been successful in gaining funding from Northamptonshire Enterprise Partnership’s
(NEP) INV-ENT (Innovation & Enterprise) fund. The funding will be used to support
and expand DTC’s cable recovery and recycling operations to the global telecom
industry.
In response to the
global migration of telecom operators from copper cable to fibre optic
infrastructure, DTC’s reverse logistics service directly addresses the recovery
of this sunken, obsolete asset. This infrastructure, often untouched in the
ground owing to perceived removal costs and logistical difficulties and low
network priority, is removed, providing investment recovery and sustainability
benefits.
NEP’s
INV-ENT program enables funds to be reinvested into businesses to stimulate
development, innovation, growth and to create new jobs. The fund was developed
in 2011 and to date has invested £550,000 into enterprises in Northamptonshire.
The funding will
be used to support specialist equipment purchases and to provide additional skills
training for DTC recovery engineers complementing DTC’s other established
services.
DTC International is a global
business with central offices, warehousing and ATF (Authorised Treatment
