Peru's national telecommunications investment fund (Fitel) is set to award fiber optic projects in four regions across the Andean country, it was reported.
The project will benefit Apurimac, Ayacucho, Huancavelica and Lambayeque regions. The projects stipulate the deployment of a fiber optic transport network as well as access infrastructure for the provision of telecoms services in these four regions.
Fitel said that the process to auction these projects will kick off next month, according to telecompaper.com
Fitel aims to promote access and use of telecommunications services in the country's rural areas and places of social interest, thus contributing to the socioeconomic development of the Andean nation.
