Globacom, a leading telecommunications company, is celebrating its impressive 20-year journey, reiterating its dedication to investing in cutting-edge technologies to meet the evolving needs of its customers.
The milestone was announced on Tuesday, marking two decades of innovation and progress.
Since its inception in 2003, Globacom has remained steadfast in its mission to provide top-notch communication and digital services.
The company’s unwavering commitment is reflected in its consistent adoption of the latest technologies.
This aligns with its corporate vision of establishing a resilient, fully integrated ICT network infrastructure that consistently delivers exceptional value to its valued customers.
A company spokesperson shared, “Our role as a catalyst for socio-economic empowerment extends not only across Nigeria but throughout Africa.
We are poised to continually pour substantial investments into emerging technologies, exceeding the expectations of our cherished customers.”
Among its notable achievements, Glo proudly recalls reducing the cost of SIM cards from approximately N25,000 to a mere N200.
The telecom giant also defied conventional wisdom by launching operations with per-second billing, an accomplishment deemed unattainable by others for at least half a decade.
Glo’s groundbreaking contributions to Nigeria’s technological landscape include pioneering innovations like Blackberry, Multimedia Messaging Service, Magic Plus, Glo Direct, Glo Fonepals, Africhat, Glo Mobile Internet, GloFleetmanager, M-Banking, and Glo Mobile Office.
The company was also at the forefront of introducing 2.5G, 3G, and 4G LTE networks.
In an impressive display of its capabilities, Glo independently constructed the international submarine cable, Glo 1.
This cable directly connects West Africa to the United Kingdom and the global network, benefiting 12 nations in the West African sub-region, even those that are landlocked.
Glo attributes its remarkable achievements over the years to the steadfast support of millions of Nigerians.
The company proudly boasts a subscriber base exceeding 61 million, underscoring its undeniable impact in the telecommunications industry.
