Historia biográfica
Globe Telegraph and Trust Company Limited was incorporated in 1873 by John Pender, a Liberal MP, who also founded the Eastern and Associated Telegraph Companies Group. Globe was formed in order to spread the short term risk of cable laying over a number of companies, and shares in Globe were offered in exchange for shares in submarine telegraph and associated companies. The Eastern and Associated Telegraph Companies Group, meanwhile, was built up by Pender over a number of years in the late 19th century.
The British Australian Telegraph Company Limited was formed in 1870 by John Pender to bring Australia within the scope of telegraph communication with Britain. In 1873 it merged with the China Submarine Telegraph Company Limited and the British Indian Extension Telegraph Company Limited to form the Eastern Extension, Australasia and China Telegraph Company Limited.
