IT and Telecommunications developments throughout the world and, particularly, in the regions of South Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa have resulted in technological transformation, giving countries the opportunity to capitalize on new technology deployments and on the rising need to connect, and to prosper. With fast connectivity quickly rising, it has become inevitable for the entire telecom industry to keep up with telecommunication’s emerging and evolving dimensions. Appetite for highly usable information on IT and telecommunications has grown dramatically and it must be met through a prolific, regionally-oriented IT and telecom publication that is at par with global standards and information quality.

Teletimes,  a Pakistan-based International monthly magazine, is that publication.

Teletimes proactively leverages knowledge and insights from executives and decision makers, who know telecommunications—the issues that need to be addressed, the technology reporting that must happen, and the answers that must be delivered. It is the realization of this core need to inform that really allows Teletimes to differentiate itself from other publications.

Being a relatively new regional publication, Teletimes is striving to achieve a qualitative edge by capitalizing on the age-old need for quality information.

The Magazine envisions securing a regional foothold as a scholarly publication, focused on aiding and inspiring research amongst its readership and lending itself as a medium of investigation for both students and research professionals. And it shall do that in the most informative, unbiased, and least distractive manner.

It is the Magazine’s mission to equip its diverse readership with the latest and the most accurate information on telecom, free of glamorous or marketing distraction devices, commonly employed by competing telecom publications to attract capital inflow—usually at the cost of qualitative information delivery.

Teletimes is circulated within South Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, and internationally through open market sales and subscription bases.
