Ooredoo Kuwait continues to strengthen its leadership in telecom innovation, significantly advancing Kuwait’s digital transformation. The company is focusing on three strategic pillars: 5G, AI, and sustainability, introducing cutting-edge solutions across critical sectors like oil, healthcare, education, and ports.
Issa Haider, Ooredoo Kuwait’s Chief Technology Officer, emphasized that technology drives the company’s operations, empowering smart communications and delivering effective digital solutions to key sectors. He announced the upcoming launch of the 5G Advanced network, highlighting the reallocation of spectrum in the 2300 and 2600 MHz bands as crucial to supporting Kuwait’s national digital economy.
With the upgrade of its radio access network and the introduction of massive MIMO antennas, Ooredoo Kuwait is preparing for innovative uses such as private networks for oil and gas, smart ports, and immersive education. The company has also forged strong partnerships with Huawei, Nokia, and the Communications and Information Technology Regulatory Authority (CITRA) to enhance AI-powered network capabilities.
AI has become integral to Ooredoo Kuwait’s network, powering self-organizing networks (SON), predictive maintenance, and AI-driven customer service. The company is also establishing an AI Center of Excellence to adopt self-decision-making network architecture for real-time, personalized customer experiences.
Sustainability remains a core principle for Ooredoo Kuwait, with initiatives like the phasing out of 3G networks, hybrid solar-powered sites, and environmentally conscious procurement practices, including recyclable materials and cloud computing reliance. These measures align with global environmental standards to reduce energy consumption and carbon footprints.
Ooredoo Kuwait is committed to leveraging these advanced technologies to deliver innovative, sustainable solutions that support Kuwait’s digital economy and enhance customer experience across the country.
