Telenor Partners With Google Cloud to Digitalise Its Global Operations

Telenor and Alphabet's Google Cloud have created a cooperation to digitalize Telenor's worldwide operations, and the two businesses are investigating methods to jointly offer services to consumers, according to a joint statement released on Monday.

According to their respective chief executives, the companies will not only employ Google Cloud's services to strengthen Telenor's own IT and network, but will also collaborate to deliver digital tools to Telenor's consumers. Telenor, established in Oslo, has 172 million users and generates around half of its income in Asia and half in the Nordics. Telenor's CEO, Sigve Brekke, stated that the digitisation initiative would be a major transition for the company, but it is also part of its goal to discover new revenue sources.
