MUSCAT — Oman Tower Company (Oman Towers), the Sultanate’s leading provider of wireless passive telecom infrastructure, has officially sealed its strategic partnership with Brookfield, one of the world’s largest alternative asset managers with over US$1 trillion in assets under management. The partnership follows Brookfield’s majority stake acquisition in June, underscoring strong global investor confidence in Oman’s telecom tower sector.
CEO Majid Amer Al Kharoosi highlighted that the collaboration is more than just financial, calling it a step towards enhanced governance, sustainability, and operational strength in line with Oman’s national growth ambitions.
Founded in 2018, Oman Towers operates around 2,450 tower sites across the country in partnership with major mobile operators. Brookfield’s entry brings global expertise and synergies from its extensive 315,000-site global tower portfolio, including 257,000 sites in India acquired through the Data Infrastructure Trust (DIT), positioning it as the second-largest tower operator worldwide.
For Oman, this deal represents a significant influx of international capital and know-how, aligning with Vision 2040 goals to strengthen digital infrastructure and foster sustainable growth. For businesses, improved telecom connectivity offers fresh opportunities in digital services, smart technologies, and next-gen solutions. For investors, the move highlights the expanding demand for telecom and digital infrastructure across Oman and the wider region, presenting a promising growth avenue.
