The training was hosted by the Telecoms Academy, a trainings institute known for their unparalleled Telecom knowledge, highly specialist skills, and ongoing efforts to help the telecom industry learn and grow.
During the course, three trainers from Great Britain shared their knowledge on financial, technical, commercial and regulatory aspects within the sector. The lectures also covered global trends and leadership.
