Our take

LotusFlare has ridden the wave of cloud tech evolution over the 2010s with its Digital Network Operator software, which helps media companies engage with customers. The company's primary objective has been to widen the mobile internet user net, bringing the technology to parts of the world that would otherwise not have access to it.

The company’s DNO product is its main USP and has led to partnerships with the likes of A1 Group and T-Mobile. It has also entered into a strategic partnership with Ericsson, which has acquired a minority stake in LotusFlare, to accelerate the goals of both companies.
