Location:

Telefónica UK's operations are primarily concentrated within the United Kingdom. However, as a historic part of Telefónica S.A., a major global telecommunications group headquartered in Spain with extensive operations in Europe and Latin America, Telefónica UK benefited from global expertise, shared innovation, and economies of scale. Now, as part of Virgin Media O2 (a joint venture between Telefónica S.A. and Liberty Global), it continues to leverage these international connections and global partnerships for technology sourcing, strategic insights, and service development. While its direct customer-facing services are UK-focused, it supports UK-based multinational corporations with their communication needs, which can extend globally.
