GNIoT was recently granted a class

Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC) of
Jordan, enabling it to equally provide services to the public and the
government, according to a Microsoft statement, carried by the Jordan News
Agency, Petra.
“Through this strategic partnership, GNIoT
and Microsoft will establish IoT infrastructure to provide coverage across
Jordan,” said Ali Shibli, chairman of GNIoT, adding that it would enable the
government to achieve aspirations and benefit from IoT technology to push
digital transformation into all sectors.
Regional Business Group Director at
Microsoft Maher Al-Khaiyat
said that GNIoT, supported by Microsoft, will install IoT networks across the
campus of
Princess Sumaya University for Technology in Amman, delivering access
to IoT technologies, which will be taught through the university’s newly
introduced specialization course in IoT Communications Engineering.
The second agreement with the
Hashemite University will provide practical, field and applied training opportunities in
partner institutions for engineering students in the university, he said,
indicating that the employment priority, when partners have relevant job
opportunities, will be for the university’s graduates.
