2025 marks 30 years since the launch of MTN as well as the final year of Ambition 2025; and the execution of our strategy remains as important as ever. As we reflect on the progress to date, our vision to lead digital solutions for Africa's progress remains unwavering and relevant, inspired by our commitment to drive digital inclusion in the markets we serve. It is powered by MTN's leading brand, broad presence and skills, connectivity infrastructure and technology platforms.
Ambition 2025 has been anchored in four priorities that have steered our strategy implementation. Given the rapid evolution of our macro and operating contexts (see Our market context), we are accelerating our execution with increased resilience, clarity and speed, in order to appropriately navigate the challenges facing our business and capture the exciting opportunities our markets continue to present.

Driven by the structural demand for data and fintech services in our markets, we are increasing the focus in critical areas of our platform strategy to accelerate execution and enhance our positioning to capture this growth.
Streamlining our focus into three principal platforms:
Connectivity (ST,
MT), Fintech (MT,LT) and Digital
Infrastructure (LT). This approach will enhance our ability to
leverage the strengths of our established businesses, as we
continue to rapidly develop and scale our emerging ones. It will also help to better harmonise the distinct regulatory, risk-management, skills and capital allocation requirements of each
of our platforms, in line with our strategy.
As we further accelerate the execution of our strategy, our commitment to the sustainability of our business and markets remains unchanged. Central to our strategy is to continue creating shared value for our shareholders and other stakeholders over the short, medium and long term. The enhanced focus of our execution is reflected in the presentation of our strategy in this report.
