Zimbabwe's State-Owned Telecoms Operator to Spend $250M on Digital Transformation

TelOne has launched a strategy to shift from traditional fixed-line services to become a fixed-mobile converged digital services provider, CEO Lawrence Nkala said during the company's annual general meeting.

According to him, the strategy will focus on:

🟠expanding fixed wireless access;

🟠upgrading next-generation fiber and core network infrastructure;

🟠increasing data center capacity;

🟠deploying AI-enabled services and cybersecurity solutions;

🟠accelerating smart city projects.

"The telecoms market is becoming increasingly data-centric and infrastructure-intensive," he noted.

Amid rising energy costs, competition from satellite internet, and margin pressures, TelOne's strategy seeks to reposition the business toward modern digital networks, Nkala added.
