Umniah brings people together, redefines possibilities and enriches lives.
Umniah entered the Jordanian market in 2005 to democratize connectivity and technology in a way that made it available to everyone. A subsidiary of Bahrain’s Beyon, the company is committed to disruptive innovation and is today one of the region’s fastest-growing telecommunications providers. It offers high-quality mobile, Internet and enterprise solutions, making technology accessible and affordable to a customer base of around three million customers in a highly competitive market.
Umniah is spearheading the digital revolution in the country, advancing core technologies like mobile productivity, cyber security, cloud computing and mobile payments, continuously pushing the limits of digital technologies to enhance day-to-day experiences.
Umniah constantly works on expanding its network and infrastructure and continues to implement its ambitious strategy to advance the Jordanian telecommunications landscape by investing in the most innovative technological developments. Umniah launched its 5G services and became the first operator to launch this technology in Irbid and Zarqa, and soon to launch in Amman, enabling individuals and enterprises to experience new technological heights.
Umniah also expanded its fiber-optic service coverage throughout the Kingdom, now reaching more than 1,000,000 households and businesses, with corporate and individual subscribers enjoying high Internet speeds that facilitate their digital experiences.
In response to the exceptional global circumstances, Umniah rapidly shifted towards digital transformation without jeopardizing productivity levels, launching services including UWallet, and collaborating with multinationals to allow people to manage all their financial transactions through their mobile phones effectively, and safely.
Moreover, Umniah partners with like-minded organizations to create initiatives that build strong relationships with stakeholders, with a focus on youth and education. Umniah engages positively with its communities, supporting the development process in the Kingdom in a manner that furthers inclusivity, cohesion and the greater good.
Umniah has always prioritized the environment, and recent global developments have prompted Umniah to put it at the forefront of its sustainability strategy, which is based on the three pillars of the environment, community, and corporate governance. Through its sustainability initiative, Umniah seeks to engage and educate its subscribers and the local community about the critical environmental challenges the world faces today, encouraging them to become positive influencers in this field.
Furthermore, Umniah gives back to its communities, working to alleviate their difficulties by setting benchmarks for corporate social responsibility and expanding the use of technology to facilitate and support people’s lives focusing on youth and education.
Umniah launched a five-year Forsa
Playgrounds Initiative in 2021, aiming to renovate public school
playgrounds. The JD1 million
initiative will create a comprehensive learning environment for students, helping them adopt healthy habits and improve their mental health and mindset. In 2022, Umniah renovated the playgrounds of seven schools and conducted seven health and safety awareness campaigns as well.
The Tank, Umniah’s business incubator, offers support to entrepreneurs, and startups with innovative ideas. Umniah consistently pushes forward in its drive to foster a culture of entrepreneurship as well as a technological revolution in both Jordan and the region, mentoring entrepreneurs and giving them access to capital that helps them turn their ideas into thriving businesses.
With guidance from trainers and mentors, startups incubated with Umniah can scale and grow using resources and programs meticulously created with their needs in mind, while giving them access to global resources that help turn ideas into sustainable businesses.
