Vietnamese telecoms operator MoibFone has announced the signing of a cooperation agreement with Finnish equipment vendor Nokia at the Mobile World Congress (MWC 2023) in Barcelona. Under the agreement, Nokia will support MobiFone with the deployment of 5G technologies and the digitisation and ‘cloudification’ of its infrastructure, including the launch of 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) services. The vendor will also help the company plan a network development roadmap.
‘We are extremely excited for the opportunity to further strengthen the strategic partnership with MobiFone on 5G technology and support MobiFone in preparing and promoting the commercialisation of 5G on its network,’ commented Nokia’s Vice President of Global Business Ricky Corker, adding: ‘We believe that the cooperation will help increase the 5G market share for MobiFone and Nokia’s solutions and services will benefit not only users but also businesses in Vietnam.’
