Tele2 AB awarded UMTS license in Luxembourg

date: May 23, 2002

Tele2 AB announced that Tango, its mobile operator in Luxembourg, has been awarded a license, from the Ministry of Telecommunications in Luxembourg, to develop a third generation mobile UMTS network.

Tango is the largest mobile provider in Luxembourg and received the most points in the beauty contest for licenses in which Orange and P&T Luxembourg, the incumbent, also took part. Tango was therefore the first of the three operators to choose its frequencies.

Content for the UMTS network will be provided primarily by Tango Sunshine radio and Tango TV, which were launched in Luxembourg in February 2001 and December 2001 respectively.

Lars-Johan Jarnheimer, CEO of Tele2 AB commented: "We are very pleased to have been awarded this license, for which no license fee was paid and Tango’s GSM network is already well prepared for conversion to UMTS."
