Workonline Communications has been awarded Best Pan-African IP Transit Network 2025 by the MEA Business Awards, recognising the company’s continued leadership in delivering resilient, high-performance IP transit services across Africa and beyond.
The MEA Business Awards celebrate organisations that demonstrate excellence, innovation, and measurable impact across the Middle East and Africa. This recognition highlights Workonline’s role in strengthening IP transit gateways between Africa and global markets, and in supporting the rapid growth of data-driven economies across the continent.
Trusted by hyperscalers, cloud operators, content providers, and telecommunications companies, Workonline operates as a strategic connectivity partner in Africa, enabling customers to build, scale, and expand with confidence. The company operates exclusively as a wholesaler, ensuring alignment with partners by enabling growth rather than competing in downstream markets.
As a pan-African operator, Workonline enables clients to expand their reach and access new markets across key regions, including South Africa, Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, Uganda, and Rwanda. This footprint is supported by a resilient backbone network across major metropolitan areas and a strong focus on diversity and performance.
Workonline’s network leverages multiple international subsea cable systems, including EASSy, SAFE, WACS, Equiano, and 2Africa, providing robust connectivity between Africa and Europe, as well as onward access to global destinations. This multi-cable approach underpins the reliability and resilience required by high-growth and mission-critical services.
With flexible and scalable capacity ranging from 1Gbps to 1Tbps, Workonline supports customers at every stage of growth, from initial market entry to hyperscale demand, while maintaining consistent service quality and performance.
“Our focus has always been on building a network that enables our customers to grow with confidence,” said Benjamin Deveaux, Business Development Head at Workonline Communications Group. “This recognition reinforces the importance of long-term infrastructure investment, operational excellence, and collaboration in advancing Africa’s digital future.”
As demand for low-latency, high-capacity connectivity continues to accelerate, Workonline remains committed to expanding its footprint, enhancing network performance, and supporting the evolving needs of customers across Africa and globally.
This award represents an important milestone, and more importantly, reflects the collective efforts of Workonline’s teams, partners, and customers who continue to shape a more connected Africa.
