Speed, capacity and reliability are essential for today’s digital consumers and businesses. We’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far – and we’re not stopping here. Telia’s recently completed extensive modernization program, together with our ongoing network investments, will enable us to meet evolving demands for security, preparedness, innovation and new services.”
