The partnership will see MTN utilize LotusFlare’s Cloud platform to improve its flexibility in adapting to changing customer demands. This initiative is expected to set a new benchmark for digital transformation within the country’s telecommunications sector.

This move supports MTN’s Ambition 2025 strategy to lead Africa’s digital transformation by leveraging its brand, infrastructure, and technology. Integrating LotusFlare’s Cloud platform enhances MTN’s agility, enabling faster adaptation to customer needs.
