Could Mauritius become an intercontinental digital hub?
Mauritius Telecom has set out a plan to turn the island state into a key digital link between Africa and Asia. The operator wants to build on its fixed and mobile networks, expand international connectivity, and draw in more data traffic through the country.
The strategy focuses on upgrading infrastructure, improving cross-border links, and promoting Mauritius as a reliable landing point for regional and global digital services. If it succeeds, Mauritius could shift from being mainly a local telecoms market to a wider transit and service hub for neighbouring regions.
