Sprint

US telecommunications company supplying data and long-distance voice connections. It was founded in 1899 as the Brown Telephone Company. In October 1999 Sprint was acquired by MCI WorldCom for $115 billion to form WorldCom, a company expected to hold about 30% of the US market.

Sprint began offering long distance service under the Sprint brand name in 1986. The company was the first to connect coast-to-coast fibreoptic transmissions.
