Etisalat wins Iranian license

UAE telecom Etisalat, as part of a consortium, won the bid for Iran's third mobile telephone licence.

Etisalat was the first telecom operator in the Gulf to introduce a mobile phone service, and was one of the early adopters of GSM technology. Since then it has established itself as a regional pioneer by introducing both 3G and MMS, and most recently, a BlackBerry service in 2006
