TechAfrica news & PortaOne
The recent opening of the Nigerian MVNO market is set to drive competition and accelerate innovation across the country – and beyond. Learn about all the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for the MVNO market and for Nigeria in this insightful conversation between PortaOne CEO Andriy Zhylenko and TechAfrica News founder Akim Benamara

Telecommunication services in Nigeria are undergoing massive transformation after the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) opened up the market to new MVNOs. Instantly after this legislation change, a surge of new, independent MVNOs entered a market once dominated by a handful of incumbents – bringing with them intense competition and the drive for innovation that always accompanies it.

These new MVNOs face significant challenges, including fierce competition and the need for differentiation – not to mention navigating the global shift toward API integrations, cloud contact center services, eSIM, and more. PortaOne has long specialized in providing solutions that meet these exact challenges, and our CEO Andriy Zhylenko has been closely observing this “great MVNO race,” as it is sure to bring new innovation and new changes to both the African market and to the global MVNO industry. Recently, Andriy sat down with TechAfrica News founder Akim Benamara to discuss how this new generation of Nigerian MVNOs can overcome the pitfalls in the road ahead, differentiate themselves from their competitors, achieve flexibility and rapid adaptation, reduce their upfront costs, and simplify the customer experience. That interview is available to read now.
