Telia Lietuva, AB — Cyborg Score 7/10

Strong
Telecommunications

Strategic Profile

The company has invested over EUR 1.5 billion in telecommunications development in Lithuania, positioning it to operate the largest and most up-to-date optical fiber and mobile communications networks. As of June 2023, Telia covers 99% of Lithuania with Low Band 5G, being the first operator to achieve that coverage in the Baltics. The company serves diverse customer segments including consumers, businesses, and government organizations.

Cyborg Score Rationale
