WOM Chile is a privately owned company, headquartered in Chile. Founded in 2015, with approximately 2800 employees, the company reported $680.1M in revenue as of 2025 and operates as a tier 1 media tech buyer. It specializes in telecoms, having launched in July 2015 by the international investment fund Novator Partners after acquiring the assets of the former operator Nextel Chile. Headquartered in Santiago, WOM focuses on high-data offerings, low-cost pricing, and targets traditional incumbents.
On September 17, 2026, WOM, controlled by UK fund Novator Partners, secured US$450 million in financing to bid for local telecoms contracts ahead of Chile's launch of Latin America's first 5G test zone; this seven-year debt carries a 4.7% coupon. The 7 million-customer company, one of five qualified by regulator Subtel for 5G contracts, also announced plans to invest US$500 million in its Chilean operations over the next three years, an amount that includes the US$150 million disbursed in recent spectrum tenders. Previously, on September 16, WOM paid CLP 12.9 billion (approximately US$13.9 million) in bond guarantees for breaches in the rollout of the National Fibre Optic (FON) network backbone project. This payment followed an August 4 order from telecommunications regulator Subtel, which detected "serious persistent and widespread" breaches of performance levels across five network macro-zones, including Arica and Parinacota North, North-Central, Central, and South-Central.
