Orange Botswana Awards P390,000 to Historic 4x400m Relay Champions, Coaches & BAA

Orange Botswana's commitment to athletics is part of a broader, consistent strategy Botswana's historic 4x400m relay team received a financial boost from telecommunications giant Orange Botswana, which awarded the athletes P300,000 for their gold medal victory at the World Championships.

The team's coaches were also recognized, receiving P50,000 and Botswana Athletics Association P40,000.

The ceremony, held to celebrate the team's groundbreaking achievement as the first African nation to win the men's 4x400m relay at the event, highlighted the company's commitment to sports development and national pride.

In a speech at the handover ceremony, the Acting CEO of Orange Botswana, Yves Famien, emphasized the significance of the win beyond the athletic field. "What we are witnessing today is not just a sporting achievement it is a defining moment in the story of Botswana," Famien said. He stated that the victory proves that Africa can lead on the world stage with "vision, discipline, and unity." The acting CEO highlighted the economic impact of sports, framing it as a catalyst for national development that creates jobs and attracts global investment.

The acting CEO also drew parallels between the relay team's success and Orange Botswana's corporate philosophy. "Just as this relay team worked in harmony to deliver victory, we too believe that teamwork, speed, and precision are the foundations of success," he noted. He stated that the company's investment in sports development is a strategic part of its vision to build a nation where excellence is the standard.

Orange Botswana's commitment to athletics is part of a broader, consistent strategy. The company has previously supported BNOC and athletes that qualified for the Olympic, Orange FA Cup and the Orange Phikwe National Marathon.

Their long-term partnership with world-renowned sprinter Letsile Tebogo further illustrates this dedication. "To our athletes, you have shown us that Botswana is not defined by size, but by vision, discipline, and belief," the acting CEO concluded, underscoring the team's role as a symbol of national potential.

The financial awards are more than just a reward, they are a public declaration of the company's support for Botswana's athletic achievements. The P300,000 for the athletes and P50,000 for the coaches and P40,000 to BAA this serve as a powerful statement that hard work and excellence will be recognized and celebrated in the country. Last year Orange sponsored BNOC and athletes that qualified for the Olympic.

Orange Botswana Named Best Network, Powering Botswana’s ICT Leadership

The award reaffirms Orange Botswana’s position as the country’s leading telecommunications provider and a key driver of Botswana’s digital economy.

The campaign, conducted between 26 June and 15 July 2025, tested mobile network performance across 4,100 km of Botswana’s roads, covering both major urban centres and smaller towns, as well as interconnecting routes. Using Rohde & Schwarz equipment and in-car smartphones, the tests captured real user experiences by executing 2,300 voice calls and 20,000 data sessions per network.
Orange Botswana emerged as the clear leader, scoring 735 points under the European Telecommunications Standards Institute Technical Report 103 559 methodology the highest in the country.

This accolade follows Orange Botswana’s 2024 recognition as the leading
telco in Botswana across all fronts, consolidating its dominance in the sector.
Orange Botswana CEO, Néné Maïga, said the recognition is not just a win for the company but a milestone for Botswana.

“This award demonstrates that Botswana is not just keeping up with global connectivity standards we are setting them. Our country is proving that innovation, investment, and commitment to excellence can place us at the forefront of Africa’s digital future.” Maïga added that the recognition highlights the broader impact of network leadership. When a nation has the best digital infrastructure, businesses grow faster, education becomes more accessible, and innovation thrives. This award is not only good for the ICT industry but also adds new impetus to Botswana’s economy by making it a stronger hub for digital investment.”

She emphasized Orange Botswana’s long-term vision to keep the country ahead in the digital race. “Connectivity is no longer a luxury; it is the foundation of economic growth, healthcare, and education. Orange Botswana will continue to push boundaries so that Botswana remains a leader in digital transformation across Africa.”
