ITHCA Group (formerly knows as Oman Information and Communication Technologies Group) was established in 2019 to play a key role in ensuring that the investments focus on supporting the technologies of the 4th industrial revolution as well as investing in the necessary infrastructure to achieve this goal. Soon after its inception, ITHCA Group integrated companies like Oman Broadband, Oman Technology Fund, Oman Towers and Space Communications Technology under its umbrella. After obtaining the approval for the Group’s strategy in the same year, ITHCA Group signed in for strategic investment in 2020 with Oracle for building a complete cloud services system as well as with Onsor Technologies. 2021 saw the official launch of Withaq Services, which was basically centralising the support services.
The core functionalities of ITHCA Group are to actively work on building Oman’s IT infrastructures, up-scale its networks and enhance Oman’s digital capabilities. Guided by the dictum of accelerate, integrate and centralise, ITHCA Group would scale up data centre/cloud facilities, build up cybersecurity infrastructure, enhance centralised digital capabilities and expand hub for telecom interconnections.
The inception of the ICT Group could not have come in more turbulent times. History teaches us that extraordinary times create extraordinary opportunities, resulting in great advancements.
This time the ICT sector is taking the key role in achieving those significant advancements. The Sultanate’s forward-looking economic development strategy (Vision 2040), in its wisdom, has rightfully identified the role that the ICT sector needs to play in securing sustainable national development and the modernization of the economy, creating the conditions for innovation and the fullest participation of all sectors.
