Amigo Live, AmigoLatino's affordable video conferencing service that helps connect families and communities face-to-face and in real-time, is now available in Puebla and Aguascalientes, Mexico.

"We have a very strong commitment to our community, so we are very excited to be working with AmigoLatino to provide this valuable service to the thousands of families and community groups in Puebla and Aguascalientes that have relatives and contacts in the United States," said Arturo Zorrilla, Vice President of Ultra Telecom who is in charge of overseeing the Amigo Live project.
"Through our initiative to democratize access to affordable business-quality video conferencing services to under served markets, thousands of families have been able to enjoy the live, visual presence of their distant loved ones.
