A brief overview of the history of the Jazz carrier
The Russian Alfa Group is the owner of Jazz since 2010. Saif Group and Motorola Inc. formed the company in 1994 as a joint venture. Orascom Telecom purchased Motorola’s interests in Mobilink in February 2001, making them the company’s dominant stakeholder. In 2010, a Russian mobile service provider, Vimpelcom, now called VEON, paid 6.5 billion USD for the majority of Orascom Telecom’s assets, which includes Mobilink as well. Mobilink was rebranded as ‘Jazz’ after Vimpelcom purchased Pakistan’s Warid Telecom (a subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi group). Pakistan’s first telecom merger resulted in a combined customer base of more than 50 million people.
Jazz was able to employ Warid’s technology-neutral license after the merger, allowing them to become the country’s second LTE mobile network provider at the time. Jazz was also allocated its 4G spectrum by PTA in June 2017. They initiated 5G testing for its subscribers at the beginning of 2018, making it Pakistan’s second mobile network to successfully test the technology.
