Lusaka: TECHz – News Desk
Ericsson has inaugurated a new office in Lusaka, Zambia, reinforcing its commitment to advancing the country’s transition to fifth-generation (5G) cellular networks and laying the groundwork for future 6G technologies.
The move signifies more than a technological investment; it strengthens Zambia’s ties with Sweden and supports the nation’s pursuit of secure, modern, and reliable connectivity. The office also reflects the growing role of private-sector partnerships in shaping Zambia’s digital economy.
The establishment of a local Ericsson presence is expected to accelerate the country’s digital transformation, complementing ongoing policy reforms, infrastructure development, and skills enhancement initiatives. With these combined efforts, Zambia is positioning itself as an emerging digital hub in the Southern African region.
The new facility underscores long-term investment in Zambia’s digital future, while ongoing collaboration with Swedish partners highlights the importance of trust, security, and shared democratic values in driving sustainable digital growth.
