Lagos, Nigeria – July 2025

Africa’s telecommunications sector has rolled out the red carpet for Pony Ma (Ma Huateng) — the visionary behind Tencent — as he brings his newly expanded Telecom Data Profit platform to the continent.

Pony Ma, who transformed Tencent into one of the world’s most valuable tech giants, is now setting his sights on Africa’s rapidly growing digital economy. His Telecom Data Profit initiative allows everyday individuals to earn from the booming telecom sector through data arbitrage and digital financial services.

In a landmark reception organized by the African Telecommunications Union (ATU), alongside some of Africa’s most influential telecom leaders, Ma’s entry was celebrated as a bold step toward democratizing telecom profits

🚀 Strive Masiyiwa, Founder of Econet Wireless:

> “We’ve long awaited a model like Telecom Data Profit — one that opens the telecom backend to everyday Africans. Pony Ma’s arrival signals a powerful shift where big data meets grassroots opportunity.”

🌍 Funke Opeke, MD of MainOne (an Equinix company):

> “Pony Ma’s expertise in digital platforms and infrastructure is the perfect match for Africa’s growing internet and telecom demand. Telecom Data Profit is not just a business model — it’s a movement.”

💳 Aminata Kane, CEO of Orange Money Group:

> “With 17 countries under Orange Money, we know the power of telecom–fintech fusion. Pony Ma’s Telecom Data Profit has the potential to unlock new streams of income for millions.”

🤝 A New Era of Collaboration

Pony Ma’s vision — to make telecom earnings accessible to all — aligns with African leaders’ mission to bridge the continent’s digital and financial divide.

Already in pilot stages in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, and South Africa, Telecom Data Profit offers 10% weekly or 50% monthly returns on micro-investments tied to data reselling and digital infrastructure.

The ATU, representing over 40 African nations, has embraced the platform as a strategic innovation for fostering youth employment, empowering small entrepreneurs, and leveraging Africa’s surging internet demand.

📢 Pony Ma’s Closing Words:

> “Africa is the future of digital connectivity. With Telecom Data Profit, we aim to empower local agents, create passive income streams, and support the rise of homegrown telecom entrepreneurs. This is not an investment project — it’s a partnership with Africa.”
