What Romantis does

Romantis GmbH is a privately held, founder-managed telecommunications service provider headquartered in Berlin, Germany, founded in 2005. The company delivers end-to-end network solutions based on terrestrial and wireless communication technologies, providing voice, data, and video transmission for customers operating across large or geographically dispersed geographies. Its offering spans three core product layers: Broadband Communication Networks (network design, deployment, and operation of high-throughput communication channels), Telecommunication Equipment (procurement, delivery, and installation of modems, switches, routers, servers, and supporting software under a single point of responsibility with warranty), and Network Engineering and Support (24/7 monitoring, on-site maintenance, and repair). These core capabilities are deployed across four verticals: Enterprise (organizations with remote branches, including oil and gas, mining, and aviation), Cellular Backhaul (connectivity between remote base stations and core networks), Maritime (ship-to-shore communications for commercial shipping, cruise, offshore, and recreational boating), and Media Delivery (high-throughput channels for broadcast and live event transmission).

The business model combines managed network services, hardware resale with installation and warranty, and professional engineering/support services. All sales are conducted through a direct, consultative B2B motion, quote-based via a single sales inbox ([email protected]), with no published pricing and no tiered/SMB self-serve channel. Contracts are multi-year and tailored to each customer's requirements. Romantis leverages a partnership network with telecom operators across the EU, USA, and other countries and with equipment manufacturers to deliver service in areas lacking terrestrial infrastructure. The company is registered at Amtsgericht Cottbus under Registernummer 12683 with VAT ID DE278498027 and is led by Geschäftsführer Alexey Parshin. Reported headcount is in the 1–10 range, financial disclosures are absent, and no patents, certifications, or third-party endorsements are publicly listed.
