e& CEO Hatem Dowidar to step down as group posts strong 2025 results

Source: Developing Telecoms | Telecom news portal for emerging markets - Developing TelecomsFebruary 25, 2026

UAE-based operator group e& said Group CEO Hatem Dowidar will leave his post after six years in charge, ending a tenure marked by structural change and wider international reach. The company credited his period of leadership with driving a major transformation of the business and expanding its footprint beyond its home market.

Dowidar’s departure was announced alongside strong financial results for 2025, underscoring that the leadership change comes at a time of operational strength rather than crisis. The group framed the move as a transition at the end of a defined phase of its growth, not a sudden break with its current strategy.
