OneWeb signs agreement with Benya Group.

OneWeb continues to gain more customers for capacity for its capacity. Last week, the company announced deals with Navarino and Uzbekspace. Now, its latest deal sees it partner with a digital solutions and ICT infrastructure provider in Egypt and the Middle East and Africa region. OneWeb announced May 23 that it had signed a new MoU with the Benya Group to provide fully integrated telecom networks to the network infrastructure of Benya Group’s clients.

OneWeb NEOM JV, a joint venture formed by OneWeb and NEOM in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with the purpose of providing high-speed satellite connectivity to NEOM, the Kingdom, the wider Middle East and neighboring East African states, will work with Benya here.

Benya provides a wide range of products, services, and digital solutions through its subsidiaries that operate in several ICT sectors, including telecommunication services, cloud and security solutions, hyperscale data centers, manufacturing technology-based solutions, and systems integration. According to OneWeb, it is the first Egyptian firm to collaborate in the Middle East and Africa on the concept of LEO satellites.

“We are thrilled with this collaboration as OneWeb is considered the leader in satellite projects across the Middle East and Africa,” Ahmed Mekky, chairman and CEO of Benya Group, said in a statement.
