Seoul, 2 October 2024: VEON Ltd. (Nasdaq: VEON, Euronext Amsterdam: VEON), a global digital operator, is delighted to announce that its operating companies Mobilink Microfinance Bank and Banglalink have been recognized for their work in digital inclusion with three awards at the M360 APAC – GSMA’s annual flagship event for the Asia Pacific region.
The “Digital Nations Award” recognizes the contributions of mobile technology in driving the digital transformation of nations. The competition attracted submissions from 11 countries, including Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.
Mobilink Bank received the “Digital Nations Video Creativity Award” for its “Invisible Heirs" campaign. The impactful video addresses a social issue in Pakistan and many other parts of the world where women don’t receive what is rightfully theirs following the death of a spouse or parent. Mobilink launched a one-of-a-kind inheritance calculator that empowers women to claim their rightful share of inheritance by helping them easily calculate their inheritance rights. Furthermore, Quratulain Chaudhary, Head of Women’s Financial Services and Sustainability at Mobilink Bank, was recognized with the “Women Digital Leadership Award”.
Another VEON Group company Banglalink received the “Excellence in Digital Inclusion Video Award” for the "MyBL Super App: Revolutionising Healthcare in Rural Bangladesh" campaign. Banglalink’s MyBL super app, which includes a healthcare module among other features and serves 7.8 million monthly active users as of September 2024, has helped make healthcare more accessible in the country, especially for underserved populations in rural Bangladesh where healthcare services are difficult and expensive to reach.
“At VEON, we are dedicated to creating solutions that serve the underserved and drive greater inclusion through the power of digital services. We sincerely congratulate our colleagues at Mobilink Bank and Banglalink for developing very impactful campaigns that address critical issues in their respective markets. The mobile industry as a whole has a huge role to play in bridging inequalities through the power of digital, and we celebrate the work of our fellow mobile operators as well as of VEON Group companies,” said Kaan Terzioglu, VEON Group CEO.
