- Telefónica Tech and Hiberus have signed a strategic agreement to expand advanced digital services across key Latin American markets.
- The partnership focuses on cloud, cybersecurity, data and AI to support enterprise digital transformation in the region.
What happened: Telefónica Tech teams up with Hiberus to scale regional services
Under the agreement, Telefónica Tech and Hiberus will collaborate to deliver a broader portfolio of digital solutions to enterprise customers in Latin America. The partnership centres on areas where demand is accelerating, including cloud computing, cybersecurity, data analytics and artificial intelligence.
Telefónica Tech brings its regional presence, infrastructure capabilities and experience in managed digital services, while Hiberus contributes sector-specific expertise and technology integration skills. Together, the companies aim to help organisations modernise IT systems, improve security and extract greater value from data.
The agreement initially targets markets where Telefónica already has a strong footprint, such as Brazil, Mexico, Chile and Colombia. By combining resources, the partners intend to shorten deployment times and tailor solutions more closely to local regulatory and operational requirements.
For Telefónica Tech, the move fits with its broader strategy of growing beyond traditional connectivity by building a stronger position in value-added digital services. Hiberus, meanwhile, gains access to Telefónica’s customer base and regional scale, supporting its international expansion ambitions.

Why it’s important
Latin America is emerging as a key battleground for enterprise digital transformation. Organisations across the region are increasing investment in cloud platforms, cybersecurity and data tools as they respond to competitive pressure, regulatory change and rising cyber risk.
Partnerships like this reflect a wider shift in the telecoms sector. Rather than developing every capability in-house, operators are increasingly teaming up with specialist technology firms to accelerate growth and reduce complexity. For customers, this can mean faster access to integrated solutions backed by both telecoms infrastructure and IT expertise.
The agreement also highlights how Telefónica Tech is positioning itself as a digital services provider rather than just a network operator. By strengthening its ecosystem of partners, the company aims to capture a larger share of enterprise technology spending, particularly in fast-growing markets outside Europe.
For Latin American businesses, the collaboration promises locally delivered digital services that combine global technology standards with regional knowledge. As digital maturity rises across the region, demand for trusted providers capable of managing complex, multi-technology environments is expected to grow.
