Econet and Ericsson have announced a joint venture to launch 5G in Harare, Zimbabwe, which will help boost capacity and user experience with faster network speeds and responsive time.

The new and superfast fifth-generation broadband technology is set to present opportunities to Econet’s consumer and business customers by offering services such as Fixed Wireless Access for homes, small enterprises and schools, among other enterprises in Zimbabwe. This technology will also broaden access to financial inclusion in Zimbabwe’s urban and rural areas.
“Working with Ericsson to launch 5G in Zimbabwe is an important milestone in our digital transformation journey. As we deploy the network across the country, our goal remains that of meeting our customers’ needs using the latest technology available. We are certain that Ericsson’s industry-leading and energy-efficient 5G solutions will help us achieve that goal, and significantly improve our customer experience through reliable connectivity to our subscribers,” Econet CEO Douglas Mboweni said.
