Founded in 2009 and headquartered in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Etihad GO Telecom has recently undergone significant developments, most notably its rebranding from Etihad Atheeb Telecommunication Company to Etihad GO Telecom Company in November 2025 as part of a strategic transformation aimed at strengthening its position in telecommunications and technology sectors and supporting Saudi Vision 2030. In June 2025, the company acquired a 51% majority stake in Ejad Tech, a leading Saudi IT services and digital transformation consultancy firm, for SAR 86.7 million. This acquisition aligns with Etihad GO Telecom's strategy to expand beyond traditional telecom services into digital and IT sectors, enhancing its technological capabilities and business footprint. The company has also secured new framework agreements, such as one with the Ministry of Communications and Technology in Syria, reflecting its regional expansion initiatives. These recent strategic moves underscore Etihad GO Telecom's focus on diversification, digital innovation, and comprehensive service offerings to drive growth in competitive markets. The company is publicly traded on the Tadawul stock exchange under the ticker GO TELECOM.
