ALKAN Telecom and industry challenges
The ICT sector in Africa and the Middle East grapples with connectivity gaps, security vulnerabilities, and uneven digital infrastructure. Rapid growth in data generation and business automation calls for robust, scalable solutions. ALKAN Telecom tackles these with hybrid cloud environments, seamless multi‑cloud integration and secure communications. Cyber threats are escalating; as a result, the firm recently signed a cybersecurity partnership with Resecurity at CAISEC 2025—advancing threat intelligence, fraud detection, and incident response across the region.
ALKAN Telecom: Innovation in action
In July 2025, ALKAN became Orbus Software’s exclusive partner in Egypt, focused on enterprise architecture and banking/finance sector digitalisation.
“We are proud to enter into this strategic partnership with Orbus… to empower organisations across Egypt to manage and enhance their digital transformation with efficiency and professionalism.”
