In recognition of its leading technological services and infrastructure, Ooredoo has been named “Best Network Readiness – Data Centre services Oman 2021” at the US-based World Economic Magazine Awards. This prestigious global accolade is recognition of Ooredoo’s support of Vision 2040, to be a knowledge-based and technologically-advanced society.
