Networks Zambia, in its capacity as the current chair of the Global System for
Mobile communication Association of Zambia (GSMAZ), has successfully
collaborated with fellow industry players ZICTA, MTN, Zamtel, and ZedMobile to
host a joint Market Storm at Chawama Grounds in Lusaka.

initiatives, including the phasing out of scratch cards and the introduction of
the convenient *707# short code for reporting stolen phones. This upcoming new
trend in Zambia's telecommunications sector is aimed at driving the country’s
digital agenda towards a more secure, efficient, and digitally transformed
future.

GSMAZ's collective goal is to promote a more secure and efficient
telecommunications ecosystem, ultimately benefiting consumers and stakeholders
alike.

believes that such collaborative initiative undertaken by industry players will
undoubtedly play a pivotal role in shaping a more innovative and inclusive
future.
