Omantel, a leading integrated telecommunications services provider in Oman, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Chinese multinational technology corporation, Huawei in order to jointly explore opportunities and develop the cloud market in the Sultanate.

As part of their strategic cooperation, Omantel and Huawei will come together to conduct market insight analysis of cloud business in Oman.
