Acquisition of new telecom towers in the Middle East and Latin America<\/h3>\n

In early 2020, IHS finalized the acquisition of around 1,600 telecom towers in Kuwait from Zain. This represented a major transaction for the leader in telecom infrastructure networks in the EMEA region.<\/p>\n

In the first quarter of 2020, IHS also finalized the acquisition of Cell Site Solutions \u2013 Cess\u00e3o De Infraestruturas S.A. (CSS), a Brazilian company based in S\u00e3o Paulo. CSS has nearly 2,300 towers, along with telecom infrastructure sites in Brazil, Peru and Colombia.<\/p>\n

IHS will thus have around 28,000 towers under management in Africa, the Middle East and Latin America.<\/p>\n

“The year is off to a very promising start for IHS. These acquisitions will extend our presence in the world and bring our increased connectivity services to emerging markets,”<\/em>\u00a0commented Sam Darwish, Founder, Executive Vice-President and CEO of IHS.<\/p>\n
