Originally formed in 1999, Bandwidth.com began as a home office start-up company in a spare bedroom of founder David Morken's Park City, Utah home. [cite news|url=http://www.forbes.com/1999/09/10/feat.html|title=Bandwidth.com flips the switch|last=Patsuris|first=Penelope|date=10 September 1999|work=Forbes|accessdate=2008-07-23] His goal was to form a telecommunications procurement company that focused on three key points of quality: selection, savings, and service.
