MTN will unveil a refreshed brand identity and campaign on February 27 as part of our commitment and focus on accelerating Africa’s progress.”
To that end, it has replaced its previous logo with a new one, which is believed to accurately reflects its evolution from just voice to other digital platforms such as financial technology, artificial intelligence, and big data, among many others.
The previous logo, which featured red, white, and blue letters, was replaced with a new one that featured all blue letters surrounded by an oval.
The new logo is now prominently displayed on the signage at the company’s headquarters in Johannesburg, South Africa.
