MAB TECH
Empowering Connectivity. Connecting Africa, One Community at a Time.
MAB TECH is the cutting-edge IT division of MAB Group, proudly holding a highly coveted ICASA license — one of only 10 licenses issued across the entire African continent. We are honored to own the 10th license, positioning us among telecommunications giants like Vodacom, MTN, Rain, and Telkom. Even Cell C operates under Vodacom’s license.
Importantly, ICASA no longer issues these licenses, making our position not only unique but incredibly powerful as we expand into a new digital era.
What is an ICASA License?
ICASA licenses are critical for:
Telecommunications: Offering voice, internet, and data services (ECNS & ECS).
Broadcasting: Covering everything from community to subscription broadcasting.
Postal Services: Ensuring reliable and compliant delivery services.
Radio Frequency Spectrum: Managing bandwidth for mobile, radio, and network services.
Owning an ICASA license gives MAB TECH the legal and competitive edge to build infrastructure, launch services, and drive innovation across South Africa and the continent.
