Jazz, Pakistan’s leading digital operator and VEON’s leading operating company (Nasdaq: VEON, Euronext Amsterdam: VEON), today announces that VEON’s Board of Directors has approved a plan to move its headquarters from Amsterdam to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where VEON’s expanding operational hub has been located since early 2022.
With the move of its headquarters to the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), VEON will become the largest Nasdaq-listed company with its Group headquarters in Dubai, which is also home to Nasdaq Dubai.
“We, at Jazz welcome this strategic move, marking an exciting chapter for the entire group.

This move will further enhance our ability to deliver innovative solutions in connectivity, fintech, cloud, cybersecurity, and driving digital inclusion. This transition enhances our partnerships, access to capital, and talent acquisition, which are crucial for bridging the digital divide as we lead Pakistan’s digital transformation,” Aamir Ibrahim, CEO of Jazz, said.

This move positions us to capitalize on the vast opportunities Dubai offers, including its proximity to our operations, access to world-class talent, and enhanced visibility with a broad base of Gulf investors. We are pleased to announce this shift as GITEX Global 2024, one of the world’s premier technology events, kicks off today in Dubai, marking a new chapter for VEON in a dynamic, thriving market,” said Kaan Terzioglu, Group CEO of VEON.
