MIAMI, Florida (April 4, 2025) – After more than a century connecting the people of the Caribbean, C&W Communications (C&W) is proud to have almost half of its senior leadership team comprised of wholly homegrown talent.
The pioneering connectivity provider, which operates Flow, Flow Business, C&W Business and BTC in The Bahamas, has roots in the region dating back to the late 19th century when it was the first to establish undersea telegraph cables that connected Caribbean islands with each other and the wider world.
“Our unwavering dedication to developing Caribbean talent forms the very foundation of our success,” said Inge Smidts, Chief Executive Officer of C&W Communications. “By providing opportunities for upward mobility and investing in the growth of our people, we are not only strengthening our leadership but also reinforcing our promise to deliver exceptional connectivity and innovative solutions across our footprint.”
Smidts said the company’s strategic focus on talent development has fostered an environment where regional expertise thrives, driving both operational excellence and high performance.
“Developing a robust pipeline of local leaders who understand the unique needs of the Caribbean market is a differentiator for our business. It’s also a powerful testament to the wealth of telecommunications expertise and excellence that exists within the region,” she said.
Caribbean women and men currently lead the company’s operations in Jamaica, The Bahamas, Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago, Anguilla, Antigua, Grenada, Dominica, St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, St Kitts & Nevis, and Turks and Caicos.
“Passion, hard work, and local expertise will continue to guide our efforts as we connect the region to the moments that matter most. We are proud to empower our teams, ensuring that the future of C&W Communications — and the region — is driven by talented individuals who understand the opportunities and challenges that are unique to the Caribbean,” added Smidts.
Following the establishment of telegraph services in the late 19th century, C&W Communications expanded its services to many Caribbean islands throughout the mid 20th century, modernizing telecommunications infrastructure and becoming a key partner in local development.
In the late 20th century, the company moved from analogue to digital technologies, laying the groundwork for mobile communications and internet services. By the late 1990s, internet services were introduced, leading to significant socioeconomic benefits, from business growth to improved access to information.
Today, C&W Communications is a full-service connectivity and entertainment provider that delivers market-leading video, broadband, telephony, and mobile services to consumers in more than twenty countries.
Through its business division, C&W provides data center hosting, domestic and international managed network services, and customized IT service solutions utilizing cloud technology to serve business and government customers.
