Private Cable Opportunity MainOne has secured significant funding to build West Africa’s first private submarine cable system, signaling a strong push into regional capacity. This presents a door for upgrades to backhaul connectivity, cross-border fiber, and managed connectivity services for new and existing regional partners and data centers.

Data Center Expansion Recent and ongoing data center expansions, including Lekki II and Lagos-area infrastructure, indicate growing demand for colocation, cloud connectivity, and peering services. This creates a sales path for interconnection, hybrid cloud, and managed services to tenants and hyperscalers expanding in West Africa.

Enterprise Connectivity Growth Positioning as West Africa’s leading connectivity provider suggests opportunities to upsell enterprise-grade networks, SD-WAN, and secure, scalable internet access to mid-market and large enterprises seeking reliable, affordable connectivity and digital transformation support.

Cloud and Security Stack With a tech stack spanning Microsoft Azure, Salesforce, VMware, and security analytics tools, there is potential to cross-sell cloud, backup, disaster recovery, and managed security services to optimize performance and resilience for regional customers.

Strategic Partnerships Past and ongoing collaborations (ACMA vessel maintenance, international undersea cable initiatives) point to a pathway for channel partnerships, joint go-to-market programs, and bundled services with regional carriers, system integrators, and technology partners to accelerate adoption.
