Telkom Innovation
At Telkom, we believe that innovation should be a valued and intrinsic part of our culture. That is why we encourage, recognise and reward robust ideas that can leapfrog current operating conventions and bolster revenue.
Whether these ideas come from within our organisation – or are invited from outside – they are intended to stimulate job creation and develop enterprises where digital skills and technology are opening doors for people to create their own future.
