Proximus, trading in the U.S. over-the-counter as BGAOF, is the leading integrated telecommunications provider in Belgium. The company offers a full suite of connectivity solutions, including fixed-line and mobile telephony, high-speed broadband internet, and digital television services for residential customers. In addition, Proximus provides a broad range of ICT and managed network services tailored to business clients, with offerings such as cloud hosting, cybersecurity, unified communications and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions.
Beyond its domestic footprint, Proximus extends its reach through specialized subsidiaries and partnerships. Its international carrier arm delivers wholesale voice, data and mobile connectivity to telecom operators and enterprises worldwide. The company also operates technology integration and consulting businesses across Europe, helping public sector and corporate customers design and maintain complex IT infrastructures. Proximus continues to invest in next-generation networks, including fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) deployments and the rollout of 5G mobile services.
Founded under the name Belgacom in the early 1990s and partly privatized with a listing on Euronext Brussels in 2004, the company rebranded as Proximus in 2014 to unify its consumer and enterprise offerings under a single identity. The Belgian government remains a significant shareholder. Governance is overseen by chairman Bert De Graeve, and operational leadership is led by CEO Guillaume Boutin, who focuses on driving digital transformation and expanding Proximus’s ICT capabilities while maintaining its core telecommunications business.
