By Business Reporter — MUSCAT: MARCH 26 - Awasr, Oman’s first specialised broadband service provider, is all set to revisit its previous COMEX success with an impressive presence at the forthcoming IT, Telecom and Technology event at the Oman Convention and Exhibition Center. Awasr’s participation in the 27th edition of COMEX, to be held from March 28 to April 1, will be an opportunity to highlight its strategic position as the first specialised broadband service provider and also demonstrate its expertise in ensuring a smooth transition to the ‘smart city’ concept, which has taken over the imagination of tech consumers in the country.
To meet this growing interest, Awasr will have experts at its pavilion to demonstrate its readiness for a smart city. Visitors will be in for an educative experience, as the company representatives will be at hand to explain the reach and network achieved in the last one year and also focus on the conclusive plans to expand its services within the capital and beyond to maximise the goals of a smart city. Its second outing, following the overwhelmingly successful presence in COMEX 2016, will showcase its corporate and home packages and offers, making it a fruitful visit for clients from different sectors. It will act as a platform to create awareness regarding the emerging ‘smart city’ concept, which has been receiving growing media attention in the recent past.
With a 150 per cent mobile penetration rate and a 77 per cent mobile broadband penetration, the onus is on service providers like us to meet the challenges of turning the concept of smart city into a reality.
