Ambition 2025 targets MTN Group enterprise revenue of more than R30 billion by 2025. This compares to R16.6 billion in 2021.
In the first six months of 2022, enterprise revenue accelerated, increasing by 26.8% in constant currency terms to R9.9 billion. This was driven largely by MTN Business growth in South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire. Ghana’s Enterprise growth was 44.9% for H1 2022 and revenue of R331m.
