Technology, Media & Telecommunications (TMT)

Africa’s TMT Industry is accelerating. The question is who leads it. Technology, media and telecommunications are fundamental to how Africa’s
economy functions and grows. The pace is real, and so is the complexity. Deloitte Africa works with the operators, broadcasters and technology companies driving this change, bringing local sector-specific expertise and global research to every engagement.

Africa’s TMT Industry is accelerating. The question is who leads it. Technology, media and telecommunications are fundamental to how Africa’s economy functions and grows. The pace is real, and so is the complexity.

Built for the future

Africa’s TMT Industry is not short of ambition. Spectrum policy is being contested. Network infrastructure investment decisions will define connectivity for a generation. Operators are under pressure to do more with tighter margins while regulators, competitors and customers all want different things – simultaneously. This is the environment that Deloitte Africa’s TMT team works in every day. We advise major telecoms operators, media companies, and technology providers across the continent on the decisions that carry real consequence: market strategy, regulatory positioning, M&A, digital transformation and cost restructuring. Not every engagement looks the same. That’s the point.

Hear from Lutho Sotashe, our Deloitte Africa TMT Industry Leader

Telecoms is the backbone of Africa’s digital economy. We mean that plainly, not as a tagline. 5G networks are being built. Fibre is expanding. AI is being embedded into operations, customer experience and revenue models. We know that decisions like infrastructure investment, spectrum allocation, regulatory compliance, customer retention, and AI integration determine whether an operator grows, consolidates or falls behind.

Our telecommunications specialists work across all of them, bringing deep functional expertise across strategy and transactions, cyber risk, workforce transformation and regulatory advisory, combined with the most current global insights on where the sector is heading.

Deloitte Africa’s TMT Industry Leader, Lutho Sotashe, sets out what Deloitte Africa sees on the ground: where operators are making progress, where the real friction points lie, and what it takes to build a sustainable competitive position in the market.
