Orange Jordan has signed a partnership agreement with the AlOun Jordan Association for Alzheimer’s Disease, providing the organisation with digital hosting infrastructure to expand and future-proof its flagship patient identification system.
Under the agreement, Orange Jordan will host and store the database of “EyeLocate” — described as the first system of its kind globally — which uses iris scanning to identify and reunite lost dementia patients with their families, operating in coordination with Jordan’s Public Security Directorate. The hosting solution is designed to scale the database to accommodate thousands of records, reinforcing the association’s technical capacity and improving service delivery to Alzheimer’s patients and their families across the Kingdom.
The agreement was signed by Orange Jordan CEO Philippe Mansour and AlOun Association President Reem Abu Hassan. EyeLocate was among three winners of Orange’s Social Venture Prize (OSVP) in 2025, following its official launch in 2024 under the patronage of HRH Princess Muna Al Hussein. Orange Jordan serves more than five million customers across Jordan and operates as a subsidiary of Orange Group, which is present in 26 countries.
Editor’s Note: Orange Jordan’s decision to back EyeLocate with infrastructure — not just funding — reflects a sharper model of operator CSR: embedding telco capabilities directly into civic and public safety systems. Worth flagging as a template for how operators in the Levant are repositioning community programmes around tangible digital utility.
