Expertise. Experience. Quality.
FPS Networks has been developing and consulting online for over a decade. With a small but highly talented team we continue to selectively acquire and develop premium domain names into fully functional business units. We have developed and sold some of the most highly trafficked websites ever made and have been fortunate enough to have successfully sold 3 businesses thus far. As one of the oldest tech "startups" in Edmonton, Canada we continue to foster entrepreneurs through seed investment, mentoring programs and speaking engagements. We are currently hiring and always appreciate the chance to network with fellow developers and entrepreneurs.
