Telecom Egypt (TE)

Telecom Egypt is Egypt’s national fixed-line operator and one of its largest telecom infrastructure companies.  In its data-center and cloud division, TE offers colocation, hosting, dedicated servers and IaaS to enterprises, carriers and government customers across Egypt. Its strategic significance comes from Egypt’s unique geographic position as a connectivity hub between Africa, Europe and Asia (with numerous submarine cables landing on its coast) — TE is leveraging this interconnectivity for data-hub and carrier-neutral services. The operator provides access across multiple commercial data-center sites and maintains a carrier-rich, network-centric infrastructure making it a key player in Egypt’s digital transformation and regional data-services market.
