Marwan Al-Ahmadi, Mobily’s CBO, stressed that the “Broadband @ work” service which was offered to Eastern Province schools is greatly appreciated by the business sector.

This step is a very important to shift toward smart schools that are equipped with the latest communication technologies in the world, he said.
It also enhances the professional working environment within schools.
