TelCables Nigeria, a subsidiary of Angola Cables (www.AngolaCables.co.ao), has announced it will host the Connect Xperience event—an initiative aimed at bringing businesses and strategic partners together to explore how local cloud infrastructure can drive Nigeria’s digital transformation and deliver widespread benefits across multiple economic sectors.
Currently, Nigeria’s cloud computing market is estimated at $1.03 billion and is projected to grow to $3.28 billion by 2030. As digital adoption continues to surge across financial, technology, and commercial industries, reliance on cloud-based services is becoming increasingly vital.
The Connect Xperience event will spotlight the benefits of utilizing locally hosted cloud services, including reduced latency, stronger data sovereignty, enhanced cybersecurity, and better compliance with domestic regulatory frameworks.
With the IT sector contributing nearly 20% to Nigeria’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), its role as a driver of the nation’s economy is undeniable.
Fernando Fernandes, CEO of TelCables Nigeria, emphasized the importance of region-specific innovation:
“We believe the future of cloud in Africa lies in homegrown, adaptive solutions designed for the unique demands of African businesses and users. With our strategic data centers and world-class connectivity, we are well-positioned to support Nigeria’s long-term digital growth.”
At the event, TelCables experts will introduce customized cloud solutions suitable for Nigerian businesses of all sizes—from startups to large enterprises. They will also highlight opportunities for local resellers and system integrators to expand their offerings through TelCables’ robust, cost-effective infrastructure available in Lagos.
“Connect Xperience will serve as a key gathering for IT leaders, business executives, and professionals seeking reliable, scalable, and locally powered cloud solutions that can streamline business operations and stimulate economic growth in Nigeria,” Fernandes concluded.
