It\u2019s a nice reflection of my 29 years at Vodacom and a nice accolade for the company and for the team,\u201d said Joosub about the MyBroadband award.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\"><strong>Best of the best<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The MyBroadband Telecoms CEO of the Year award is highly respected and coveted in the South African ICT industry.<\/p>\n<p>It is given to a CEO who performs exceptionally as the leader of a top telecoms company.<\/p>\n<p>A variety of metrics are used to choose the winner, including the impact of their company\u2019s products and services on South Africans, as well as the company\u2019s financial and technical performance.<\/p>\n<p>Using these metrics, Joosub was the clear winner. His prominence in the telecommunications market and the impact he has had at Vodacom &#8211; and across the whole telecoms sector over the past year &#8211; is nothing short of phenomenal.<\/p>\n<p>Under his leadership, Vodacom has experienced exceptional revenue growth in the face of major hurdles \u2013 such as unprecedented load-shedding and spectrum availability challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Based on this performance, Joosub was the deserving winner of the 2023 MyBroadband Telecoms CEO of the Year award.<\/p>\n<p><a  data-lightbox=\"post-image\" href=\"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Shameel-Joosub-MyBroadband-Awards.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-677447 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Shameel-Joosub-MyBroadband-Awards.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Shameel-Joosub-MyBroadband-Awards.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Shameel-Joosub-MyBroadband-Awards-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Shameel-Joosub-MyBroadband-Awards-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Shameel-Joosub-MyBroadband-Awards-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vodacom CEO Shameel Joosub recently won the 2023 MyBroadband Telecoms CEO of the Year award, thanks to his outstanding leadership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":677445,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10459],"tags":[27],"class_list":["post-677443","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industry-news","tag-vodacom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677443","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/57"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=677443"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677443\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":677449,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677443\/revisions\/677449"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/677445"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=677443"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=677443"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=677443"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
