Telecel Ghana’s executive team recently visited Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology’s (KNUST) newly-appointed Vice-Chancellor, Professor Christian Agyare, to extend their congratulations on his appointment. The delegation expressed confidence in his leadership and highlighted the pivotal role KNUST plays in fostering innovation and skill development.

Moreover, they discussed potential collaborations aimed at bolstering the university’s digital infrastructure and ensuring continued reliable connectivity for its students and faculty. KNUST has maintained a long-standing partnership with Telecel Ghana, acting as the university’s connectivity provider and aiding its transformation into a more digitally-driven academic institution.

At the forefront of Telecel Ghana’s delegation, Director of Finance Samuel Owusu-Mensah affirmed the company’s dedication to understanding KNUST’s evolving needs and jointly enhancing digital experiences throughout the institution. Owusu-Mensah noted the significance of this enduring partnership and the telco’s resolve to build upon its existing strong foundation, promising to support KNUST’s digital tool access for knowledge creation, problem-solving, and national development.

Professor Agyare warmly welcomed Telecel Ghana’s involvement, recognizing its value in advancing KNUST’s academic and research goals.
