The organization maintains its headquarters in Miami and has a strategic presence in Zaragoza, Spain.
BTS Group's scale is reflected in its reported handling of over 18 billion voice communication minutes annually across more than 180 countries. The company continues to innovate in artificial intelligence, automation, omnichannel communications, and new digital platforms. Additionally, BTS Group has formed a strategic alliance with SoftBank through SBTS, aimed at enhancing its reach and delivering technology and communication solutions in the Asia-Pacific and Middle East markets.
