In 2013, HKBN extended its Wi-Fi business development and acquired Y5ZONE Limited. HKBN’s fibre optic network now covers over 2 million residential homes and more than 1,900 commercial buildings.

In May 2012, HKBN underwent a management buy-out and is now majority-owned by funds advised by CVC Capital Partners and 91 HKBN Co-Owners.
