Telecel Congratulates New KNUST VC

Telecel Ghana's executive team recently paid a courtesy visit to the freshly appointed Vice-Chancellor of Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Professor Christian Agyare, to extend their felicitations on his appointment. The delegation expressed their confidence in the new leader's ability to steer the institution's course, emphasizing KNUST's pivotal role in promoting innovation and skill development.

The discussions between the two parties encompassed enhancing collaboration between KNUST and Telecel Ghana, particularly in bolstering digital infrastructure. The telco firm has been a longstanding partner of the university, supplying connectivity services and aiding the transition towards a more digitally integrated academic environment.

Representing Telecel Ghana, Director of Finance Samuel Owusu-Mensah affirmed the company's dedication to understanding the university's evolving needs and working together to augment digital experiences across the institution. "We value the longstanding partnership with KNUST and are eager to build upon the robust foundation that already exists," Mr. Owusu-Mensah stated. "We will persist in supporting the university's access to digital tools to foster knowledge creation, problem-solving, and national development."

The Vice-Chancellor welcomed Telecel Ghana's engagement, acknowledging the partnership's value in advancing the university's academic and research objectives. Professor Agyare affirmed the university's readiness to continue working with Telecel Ghana to explore opportunities that enhance connectivity and support KNUST's aspiration to remain a leading science and technology institution.

Telecel Ghana's engagement with KNUST has expanded over several years through initiatives aimed at broadening access to digital tools and improving connectivity for the university community. The company has supported the university's digital learning agenda through connectivity solutions, technology projects, and measures to mitigate barriers to digital participation among students.

For Telecel Ghana's CEO, Ing. Patricia Obo-Nai, the partnership carries a personal significance as she was recently honored as one of KNUST's distinguished alumni in the university's 75th anniversary commemorative publication, "70 Years of Global Impact." As KNUST embarks on a new chapter under Professor Agyare's leadership, Telecel Ghana reiterated its commitment to strengthening the relationship and supporting the university's vision of advancing science, technology, and innovation in Ghana.
