Since its official launch in 2005, Umniah has succeeded in quickly making a strong impression on one of the region's most highly competitive markets. Our company, a subsidiary of Batelco Bahrain, has positioned itself as a successful operator in Jordanian telecommunications, offering high quality integrated services, including mobile, Internet, and business solutions, for the best value and at the cutting edge of industry developments. In 2014, we reached the mark of over 3 million mobile customers - a market share of over 31.5%. Our broadband services witnessed a 100% growth in less than 2 years, enabling us to extend wireless Internet services to 80% of the Jordanian population. We have been able to upgrade the infrastructure and expand coverage across Jordan, in support of the National ICT Strategy. We have also contributed to boosting mobile market penetration from 26% in 2005 to more than 135% in 2013. We are proud to be at the helm of the Jordanian telecom industry today. In June 2012, Umniah also launched its ultra-fast 3.75G network, powered by state-of-the-art HSPA+ technology. This, and related Internet services, were released under our evo brand, providing the latest innovations in mobile broadband Internet to Jordan. Today, Umniah's operations provide unprecedented services for the region. We work to give Jordan the best local telecom services with international expertise. At Umniah, we see that Diversity and Inclusion is the way to attract, retain, and develop the best talents in our industry who share our passion.
