Our digital infrastructure platform strategy has been streamlined to incorporate fibre and data centres. This approach positions the Group to better enable the exponential growth in digital workloads, driven by rising demand for fixed connectivity and data centres in Africa and beyond; especially in light of the adoption of AI. It will also enable MTN to take a leading role in accelerating digital infrastructure development across the continent, attracting investment, facilitating key partnerships, and unlocking value in key asset classes.
Our data centre strategy: Through an integrated FibreCo and AI-enabled data centre strategy, we are building the backbone of Africa's digital transformation and future, scaling into the largest provider of wholesale connectivity in Africa. Given the current industry demand and future expected AI-driven demand, MTN is advancing a strategy to capture the related economic benefits and ensure Africa is not left behind. As the world evolves with speed to adopt AI, our strategy will position the continent to benefit from the technology's productivity, efficiency and related entertainment-enabling benefits. LT
Our FibreCo ambitions are being driven within Bayobab, which is committed to bridging the digital divide, contributing to the development of Africa's digital economy and connecting communities across the continent. Through this platform, MTN continues to reinforce its leadership in digital infrastructure solutions by harnessing the full potential of its fixed infrastructure assets and communication platforms across Africa.
