AT&T Expands Middle East Operations to Iraq

AT&T Better Serves Multi-National Companies in Iraq with New Affiliate

DALLAS, Sept. 30, 2015 — AT&T* now has a new affiliate to expand global communication services in the Middle East. We’ll be able to serve multi-national companies in Iraq, particularly those in the energy sector.

Earlier this year, we opened an office in “Energy City” in Basra, Iraq.

“It’s not every day we open up a new country for AT&T. Our data services are available to customers in more than 190 countries and territories – this represents 99% of the world’s economy. Now we can better connect our customers doing business in Iraq so they have highly secure access to their critical apps. No matter where our customers decide to do business, we are helping them connect, protect, virtualize and manage their business,” said Dan Walsh, AT&T’s Senior Vice President and Managing Director for Energy Business Solutions.

Recently, IDC¹ affirmed the global coverage of AT&T and its ability to provide services to global multi-national corporations. IDC named AT&T a Leader in the 2015 global service provider IDC MarketScape.
