Students also have the opportunity to participate in a draw to win 10 $1000 scholarships. Commenting on the campaign, Umniah CEO Ziad Shatara said, “The youth represents the largest category within the Umniah subscribers’ base, and hence, the provision of an integrated package of communications and internet services represents a major effort by us at Umniah, to service this category.” Shatara went on to add, “Our aim with this campaign was to be different and innovative, two goals that we were able to achieve through the variety of gifts and prizes as well as the activities that took place during the month-long promotion.” He explained that as always, Umniah always adopts excellence in all its services and integrated communications solutions. Shatara noted the importance of the youth category, and said that Umniah adapts its services and products to take into account this very important segment of the population. During the campaign, which reached more than one quarter of a million students, Umniah’s team introduced the Shababi platform and its accompanying line, which provides communications and Internet services at competitive prices for the youth. Students also had the chance to learn more about the communications services and marketing offers provided by Umniah.
