Inspired by our belief that everyone deserves the benefits of a modern connected life, we provide a diverse range of voice, data, digital, fintech, wholesale and enterprise services to more than 277m customers in 21 markets.

We were established in South Africa at the dawn of democracy, in 1994, as a leader in transformation. Since then, we have grown by investing in sophisticated communication infrastructure, developing new technologies and by harnessing the talents of our diverse team of people to now offer services to communities across Africa and the Middle East.

HISTORY OF MTN

Driven by our belief that everyone deserves the benefits of a modern connected, we strive to connect Africa through digital and financial inclusion. We are inspired by the potential of African Innovation. We believe that our success is closely linked to inclusive socioeconomic growth and development on the continent. As a champion for Africa, we have a pivotal role to play in addressing the considerable gaps in access to connectivity by driving mobile and internet adoption. Connectivity provides access to financial technology (fintech) and digital solutions that pave the way for participation in economic activities and education, enhancing lives and strengthening communities

MTN has always had an ambitious and pioneering spirit. For more than a quarter of a century, we have played a bold and prominent role in accelerating Africa’s development. When we started our journey, it was our ambition to brighten lives through the power of connectivity, and this continues to be a priority for us. Africa is young, dynamic and ambitious. We see an opportunity to continue harnessing the power of MTN – not only through our brand strength, our footprint and best-in-class connectivity infrastructure, but by offering technology platforms that are second to none, through Ambition 2025, our integrated platform strategy.
