ntel Launches New Strategy for Digital Infrastructure Growth

ntel, the telecom operator formed from the assets of Nigeria’s former national carrier NITEL, is implementing a new strategy called "The Next Frontier" to reposition itself in the telecommunications market. This strategy focuses on digital infrastructure, fibre networks, and real estate development. ntel aims to build an integrated business anchored on three pillars: Beam, Eden, and Titan.

The Beam pillar will expand connectivity offerings, introducing products like WakaGo, a global e-SIM solution, and AirFibre, a fixed wireless broadband service. The Titan pillar emphasizes infrastructure development, including tower construction and fibre connectivity.

The Eden platform aims to unlock value from property assets, with three projects announced: Eden Place in Lagos, Nova Place in Port Harcourt, and Terenna Court in Abuja. Soji Maurice-Diya, Managing Director and CEO of NatCom Development & Investment Limited, which trades as ntel, stated that this strategy is more than a restructuring effort; it seeks to create an ecosystem connecting technology, infrastructure, and economic development.
