UBConnect has been an important partner in the first phase of 5G development for Telenor. Now they have entered into a new agreement for further development of 5G in 2023 and 2024 in new areas of Norway. With this new agreement, UBConnect is one of Telenor's largest partners in 5G development in Norway.
During 2023 and 2024, UBConnect will expand and upgrade a significant number of new 5G base stations for Telenor in Akershus, Vestfold, Buskerud, Aust- and Vest-Agder and in Sør- and Nord-Trøndelag.
Ambitious 5G plans
Telenor has very ambitious 5G plans for the next few years, with the goal of delivering 5G networks to the entire country by 2024. UBConnect will build a third of their new 5G base stations in 2023 and 2024 and in doing so establish themselves as one of Telenor's largest partners in 5G development.
-We are very pleased with the way UBConnect has contributed during the development of our 5G network in Norway so far and are therefore very happy to have UBConnect on the team moving forward. UBConnect is an important supplier for Telenor, delivering and meeting our expectations in terms of capacity and quality, says Ingeborg Øfsthus, Technology Director at Telenor Norway.
Leading 5G developer
UBConnect has been an important partner during Telenor's 4G development in Norway and in the first phase of the 5G development since 2020. This renewed agreement between the two companies is part of a larger framework agreement for the expansion and development of Telenor's mobile network (RAN - Radio Access Network).
Lasse B. Bjørgan, CEO of UBConnect, states the following regarding the conclusion of the new agreement:
-We are very happy and proud of the trust Telenor shows us, as well as of the good cooperation we have had for many years. This is in line with our ambitions to be the market leader in 5G development in Norway, in addition to being an exciting employer.
-Working on expanding the Norwegian 5G network will also give us a solid foundation for investments in other markets in Europe, something we are already working on, says Bjørgan. -UBConnect has ambitions to be a leading expert company in mobile in the Nordic region and other markets.
UBConnect is a market-leading provider of digital infrastructure for mobile networks in Norway. UBConnect is also an increasingly important participant in the expansion of 5G networks in the European market.
