Located in Washington, D.C., Alvarion has earned a stellar reputation as a global 4G communications leader. Today, Alvarion took a major step towards prominence with the announcement they have joined forces with Foris Telecom to launch its 4G network in Mozambique and Kampala, Uganda.
The network, operating in the 2.5 GHz frequency range, is the first 4G deployment in Uganda and Mozambique. The network will provide broadband connectivity to residential and business users as local municipalities.
Dov Slook whom serves as the CEO and Chairman of Foris Telecom spoke of the agreement with Alvarion when he stated, “Alvarion’s best-of-breed solution allows us to meet the specific demands of the African market.

Leading the way at Alvarion is Eran Gorev who is the President and CEO of the young company. Gorev was quoted as saying, “We are pleased to join forces with Foris Telecom to provide 4G wireless broadband services in Uganda and Mozambique.
