Telefonica and Bouygues Telecom announced strategic partnership

WorldWide Tech & Science. Francisco De Jesús.


Europe and Latin American operator group Telefonica announced an alliance with French number three Bouygues Telecom, which is set to join the Telefonica Partners Program. In a statement, the Spain-based group said that it will work with Bouygues to offer improved roaming services, and to provide services to large corporate accounts, including multinationals. 

Bouygues will also gain access to Telefonica Global Services, its global procurement business, and the two will also cooperate on devices. The agreement also includes “the possibility of extending the cooperation into other areas.”

Telefonica has highlighted growth through a community of partners and alliances as part of its future strategy, alongside organic growth and “selected acquisitions” to bolster its position in key markets. 

It said that its Partners Program is “based on the experience of its current industrial partnerships with China Telecom and Telecom Italia.” Bouygues stands to benefit through access to a large, international telecoms group partner – its key rivals in its home market are France Telecom/Orange, and media group Vivendi’s SFR.
