SAMENA Council’s efforts to drive the regional digital agenda receives boost with 3 new members

SAMENA Telecommunications Council, the tri-regional non-profit telecommunications association has announced three new additions to its growing member base emphasizing the rapidly growing importance of the Council as it strengthens its efforts to promote the development and adoption of national and sector-specific digitization policies.

AT Kearney, a global management consulting firm and trusted advisors on CEO-agenda issues to the world’s leading organizations across all major industries and sectors, Tawasul Telecom, an industry leader in providing MPLS networking services in the GCC and the Middle East, and Innova IT Solutions, a leading software developer and integrator in Turkey, are the latest members to join the SAMENA Council.

Mr. Bocar A. BA, CEO of SAMENA Telecommunications Council said, “If the development, growth and performance of the regional telecommunications industry in the last decade were exciting, as we head towards 2020 the best and most challenging times are yet to come. Accelerating economic growth through widespread adoption of digitization is a very important topic and high on the agenda of most if not all industry stakeholders and national governments. SAMENA Council has assumed a leadership role in driving this initiative, which will immensely benefit our member base. Hence I am glad to welcome our three new members onboard and hope to work closely with them to further improve our value proposition and the corresponding impact on the regional telecoms industry and the economy at large.”
