\n\tTo drive national digital transformation and foster inclusive economic growth, our company is executing its \u2018Next Horizon: Digital & Beyond 2028\u2019 strategy. This strategy focuses on digital inclusion, job creation, and strengthening our presence in the continental digital landscape.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBy swiftly embracing technological shifts, we are moving beyond basic connectivity to establish ourselves as a global competitor and a pioneer in digital solutions and telebirr financial services. Through these innovations, we are creating new economic opportunities that benefit all segments of our community.<\/p>\n
\n\tAccordingly, it is with great pleasure that our company announces the launch of teleStream an internet-based content streaming service set to transform the national media ecosystem alongside a \u2018Zero-Touch Digital System\u2019 that fully modernizes fixed broadband (Wi-Fi) service delivery, both of which are integral components of our strategy.<\/p>\n
\n\tUsing the existing modern fiber, 4G, and 5G technology infrastructure, the telecloud, and the integrated telebirr digital and payment ecosystem as enabling factors, our company implemented the \u201cteleStream\u201d service; which beyond modernizing citizens\u2019 digital lifestyle, provides a superior technology experience and elevates our country\u2019s media and entertainment ecosystem to a higher level.<\/p>\n
\n\tProvided via our company\u2019s fiber and telecloud infrastructure, the teleStream service features low latency and superior streaming quality, enabling users to easily view quality local and international content via their home broadband Wi-Fi without a satellite dish. This ensures a reliable service that is unaffected by weather conditions.<\/p>\n
\n\tCurrently, teleStream includes over 60 Live TV channels and more than 350 Video-on-Demand (VOD) titles. The service is accessible via fixed broadband or SIM cards using the \u2018Set Top Box\u2019 (STB) device, which converts non-smart TVs into smart ones, aimed at making modern digital entertainment accessible to every household.<\/p>\n
\n\tteleStream has opened a new development horizon for the country\u2019s media and entertainment actors; through this, TV stations, production houses, business companies, advertising agencies, film producers, writers, and actors, as well as those providing content for education, health, and social values, have gained a vast strategic opportunity to make their content widely accessible and benefit.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe service changes the country\u2019s previous satellite dish dependency and provides a superior alternative by hosting broadcasts on our local telecloud, allowing for the transmission of national and international news, live programs, educational content, podcasts, and movies without buffering and in a coordinated, high-quality manner. It particularly prioritizes and makes accessible content based on our country\u2019s culture, values, and ethics for Ethiopian families.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe multi-faceted benefits of teleStream for individuals, businesses, and the country are summarized in the following five points:<\/p>\n
\n\tFor Individuals and Families:Provides a superior digital entertainment experience. Since it is provided via our modern fiber infrastructure, users can enjoy high-quality images regardless of weather conditions via their home Wi-Fi, without a satellite dish, messy wires, or complicated installations, and with zero extra maintenance costs. Payments can be made seamlessly via telebirr. Additionally, it provides family-oriented and educational content from trusted sources, and the inclusion of Parental Control makes the service reliable and preferred. By bundling it with internet service, it greatly modernizes the family\u2019s digital lifestyle.<\/p>\n
\n\tFor Media Houses and Content Creators:Helps TV stations perform their broadcasts in a cost-effective way using local infrastructure by eliminating high foreign currency leases for satellites (Zero-Forex). It creates a convenient platform for film professionals, writers, and actors to reach millions and generate income. Content providers can quickly offer their work for free or via payment on teleStream, and it opens new opportunities for advertising agencies and brands to use Targeted Ads.<\/p>\n
\n\tFor Business Institutions and Hotels:teleStream is a modern and preferred solution for businesses, especially hotels and guest houses. It helps them provide a high-quality entertainment experience to international and local guests without the burden of maintaining hundreds of dishes. This allows for reliable information and entertainment delivery in reception areas, rooms, and lobbies, integrated with secure telecloud systems.<\/p>\n
\n\tFor Education, Health, and Government Institutions:Serves as a wide-reaching information delivery method for remote learning and digital libraries in schools and universities, as well as providing awareness information in hospitals. Additionally, it enables government and non-governmental organizations to make their agriculture, health, and other information work accessible nationwide.<\/p>\n
\n\tFor Smart City and National Digital Sovereignty: teleStream contributes significantly to modern urban beauty and smart city construction by removing satellite dishes from the skyline, thereby reducing visual pollution. By hosting content on local telecloud infrastructure, it helps the country achieve Digital Sovereignty over information flow while reducing satellite rent dependency and creating numerous job opportunities.<\/p>\n
\n\tBeyond building 14,413 km of metro fiber and a fiber network capable of hosting 1.2 million customers, our company, Ethio telecom, has been extensively implementing a project to replace the existing copper network with a modern fiber network (Copper switch-off), successfully migrating over 79,000 customers to date. This ensures the high speed required for daily tasks and advanced systems, enabling customers to streamline their operations.<\/p>\n
\n\tOur company has started providing the \u201cFiber to the Room\u201d (FTTR) service, which delivers high-speed internet directly to the specific room the customer desires. This provides a reliable and ultra-low latency environment for advanced digital services such as Cloud, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Smart Home technologies.<\/p>\n
\n\tAdditionally, our company has implemented a digital system (Operation Support System) to modernize fixed internet service delivery. This system makes the service delivery process \u201cZero-touch,\u201d greatly improving the customer experience. This is an all-in-one digital system that enables our \u201cNext Horizon: Digital and Beyond 2028 Strategy\u201d and maintains service quality at a superior level.<\/p>\n
\n\tCustomers no longer need to visit service centers; they can perform new Wi-Fi or COMBO service requests and fault registrations digitally via the telebirr SuperApp mini-app. This system, supported by Web-GIS and Zero-touch technology, also enables payments via telebirr. For the service, a National ID (Fayda) and a telebirr account are required.<\/p>\n
\n\tIn general, these comprehensive Broadband and teleStream services open a new chapter for our country\u2019s digital economy transition and lay the foundation for universal growth. By making modern digital solutions widely accessible, our company is not only changing citizens\u2019 digital lifestyles but is also translating the Digital Ethiopia 2030 vision into tangible success.<\/p>\n
