History
Fourteen years building networks in Mallorca.
Joan Soler Galmés has been in IP telephony since he was 18: more than two decades with Asterisk, almost ten of them before founding VOIPMINIC in 2012 with a simple idea: to give the businesses and homes of the area the voice and data services the big operators weren't giving them. First prize in the Don Bosco National Award for Technological Innovation (20th edition), Digium-certified DCAP, speaker at two editions of VOIP2DAY, he taught the first Asterisk course in Mallorca (Sa Franquesa Nova), and VOIPMINIC was the first official Arduino and Sangoma distributor in the Balearic Islands, as well as a partner of Avanzada 7, Spain's leading IP telephony distributor, for over a decade. Today that means our own fibre, radio, VoIP and mobile.

First steps in IP telephony
Joan Soler starts working with voice over IP and Asterisk phone systems at 18, when the technology was barely reaching businesses on the island. Nine years of experience before incorporating the company.
