Telecoms was the ultimate winner at the 2018 Glotel Awards

The winners were evenly distributed among a broad range of operators, vendors and industry specialists at the 2018 Global Telecoms Awards.

A very enjoyable night, which featured a hilarious stand-up set from comedian Russell Kane, culminated with the winners of 14 awards being revealed. The awards span the full breadth of the telecoms industry, recognising the many technologies and activities required to connect the world.

You can see the full list of winners and highly commended entries below. It was especially pleasing to see so many different companies represented among the winners, indicating a healthy  and diverse industry. The headline of this story is a bit tongue-in-cheek, but it’s with total sincerity that we, the Telecoms.com team, say it’s a pleasure and a privilege to play a part in celebrating the global telecoms community.
