JazzWorld wins '5G Champion for Growth' at The Fast Mode Awards 2026

JazzWorld, Pakistan's leading digital services platform, has been named '5G Champion for Growth' in the Communication Service Provider category at The Fast Mode Awards 2026. The international award recognizes the company's efforts to accelerate 5G deployment and expand next-generation connectivity across the country.

The accolade comes as part of an awards program that attracted more than 500 entries across various categories. JazzWorld's recognition follows significant investments in spectrum, rapid network expansion, and a growing focus on delivering improved connectivity and customer experience through 5G.

Since launching its 5G upgrade program in March 2026, Jazz has brought more than 1,200 5G sites on air, prioritizing Pakistan's ten largest commercial cities through a city-first, cluster-based deployment strategy. The expansion has been accompanied by a sharp increase in 5G usage, with daily data traffic rising more than sixfold from 14.8 TB in June to 89.3 TB in September 2026.

The rollout is also delivering measurable network performance gains. Average 5G user throughput has reached up to 15 times that of the blended 4G experience, while growing 5G adoption is helping ease capacity pressures on the existing 4G network. Supporting this expansion is JazzWorld's significantly strengthened spectrum portfolio, which has grown from 94.4 MHz to 284.4 MHz across low, mid, and high frequency bands, providing greater capacity to meet Pakistan's increasing demand for high-speed connectivity.

Khalid Shehzad, Chief Technology Officer at JazzWorld, said, "5G is an important milestone for Pakistan's digital infrastructure, but our ambition goes beyond network deployment. We are building the capacity to meet growing digital demand, improve everyday connectivity, and enable new opportunities for businesses and consumers. This recognition reflects the progress we have made and our continued commitment to investing in Pakistan's digital future."

JazzWorld continues to expand its next-generation network as part of its broader commitment to strengthening Pakistan's digital infrastructure and making advanced connectivity more widely accessible.
