As part of its strategy, e& will elevate its global positioning by zoning in on creative development and automation, immersive experiences and strategic partnerships, a statement said.

Internally, a group-wide effort will be made to promote a more productive work culture by developing individualised learning pathways and certifications, providing training and seminars, adopting effective internal communications strategies, and enhancing workplace cooperation.

“Our partnership with Meta is in line with our ambitious goals of creating limitless possibilities built on connections, connectivity and collaboration,” said Hatem Dowidar, CEO, e&. “We are developing strong partnerships and identifying new growth opportunities as we advance our transformational journey for the benefit of our customer segments and shareholders. We look forward to a fruitful collaboration with Meta as we continue to create a more progressive business model that supports our growth aspirations to stay fit for the future.

“An important element in our partnership with Meta is to design powerful, seamless digital experiences for all our customers so that they are empowered to advance their own digital transformation agenda with our support. Our advanced 5G network will ensure that we provide a platform that will combine multiple technologies to bring the internet to life and help our customers embrace a digital-first lifestyle more efficiently.”

We are excited to work with e& to further grow their digital transformation journey and leverage Meta technologies to benefit their customer base.”
