Ghana’s mobile achievers ready for 2nd Mobile World Telecom Awards

All is set for Ghana to host the second annual Mobile World Ghana Telecom Awards to be held on Friday the 20th of April at the Holiday Inn in Accra.
This event recognizes the achievements of companies in Ghana’s Telecom & ICT sector and is fast becoming a popular event in Ghana’s technology space.

There are 17 competitive awards, and four special awards at stake in the award scheme organized by Instinct Wave Limited, publishers of Mobile World Magazine.

According to a statement by the Mobile World Magazine publisher Akin Napthal, Ghana’s Telecom & ICT sector continues to play a very important and strategic role in the development of Ghana’s economy. The government has invested millions of dollars in infrastructure, training, and the employment of many Ghanaians all over the country.

He said, “It is important these companies are recognized for their achievements and continued commitment to the development of Ghana.

Some of the most contested awards at stake include CEO of the year, Telecom Operator of the year, Telecom Brand of the year and Best CSR initiative of the year.

Airtels’ Phillip Sowah won the CEO of the year at last year’s event, however this year he faces stiff competition from the likes of Kyle Whitehill (Vodafone) and MTN’s Michael Epoki.

Market Leader MTN comes to this year’s award as the Telecom Operator of the Year and holders of the CSR initiative of the year; Vodafone comes as the Telecom Brand of the year, and Airtel comes as the Customer Service of the Year.
