Zamtel has reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Zambia’s economic growth through inclusive digital transformation by participating in the 4th Private Sector Day, held under the theme “Driving National Development and Building Economic Resilience: Innovative Private Sector Solutions for Job Creation and Growth.” The event provided a platform for the company to highlight its role in advancing the country’s digital economy.

The engagement coincides with Zamtel’s plans for an Initial Public Offering (IPO) and listing on the stock exchange. The company noted that the IPO will allow Zambians to acquire a stake in the business, participate in its growth, and contribute to national economic development. Broadening ownership is expected to strengthen corporate governance, enhance transparency, and attract long-term investment to support Zamtel’s expansion agenda.

As Zambia’s national telecommunications provider, Zamtel continues to focus on expanding reliable connectivity, investing in network infrastructure, and enabling digital solutions for businesses, SMEs, and public institutions. The company emphasized that these initiatives foster an environment conducive to innovation, entrepreneurship, and job creation.

Zamtel’s participation in the Private Sector Day underscored its role as a strategic partner in national development, leveraging technology to drive productivity, support entrepreneurship, and build a resilient digital economy for all Zambians.
