StarHub

Antina, a standalone (SA) 5G joint venture established by Singaporean operators StarHub and M1, awarded Nokia a ten-year extension to an existing deployment deal following a tender to expand coverage using the 3. 5MHz band.

StarHub hit the top band of a revised revenue guidance for 2022 and forecast continued gains this year, driven by mobile, entertainment and regional ICT services.

StarHub raised its full-year revenue guidance after double-digit revenue growth in Q3 driven by increases in mobile subscriber numbers and post-paid ARPU.

StarHub registered growth across all its business segments in Q2, with gains in post-paid and prepaid subscribers as Singapore reopened its border.

Singapore-based StarHub’s mobile network delivered the fastest average download speeds in the citystate, while newcomer TPG Telecom’s users experienced the slowest download and upload rates by a large margin, data from network metrics company Opensignal showed.

Singapore operator StarHub named Ayush Sharma (pictured), previously head of Rakuten Americas’ metaverse and edge platforms business, as CTO focused on digital transformation and new products.

Singapore-based StarHub credited a rise in post-paid subscribers and ARPU in Q1 to uptake of 5G plans, but recorded lower profitability due to higher expenses and investments. StarHub reported mobile service revenue rose 3. 8 per cent year-on-year to SGD134.
