We at RIU Global would like to offer our support, whether it is in terms of investment, resources, platform, or infrastructure to any such individual who would like to start something of their own in this space, the company posted.

Our amazing team has changed the industry for the better and has helped many global customers reimagine their networks, Jordan added.
