Financial details were not disclosed.

Said IXEurope chief exec Guy Willner: "Having weathered the storm over the last two years our management team is delighted to be in expansion phase again.

"IXEurope is now the market leader in Switzerland, which is a fast growing market due to its central position in Europe and its favourable tax laws."
