THE Guyana Telephone and Telegraph Company (GTT) on Saturday announced itself as the Official Technology Partner and Platinum Level Sponsor for the recently launched Guyana International Petroleum Summit, which will be held in Guyana from February 7-9 at the Marriott Hotel.

According to a release from the company, the support for the conference at such a strategic level signals GTT’s support of the emerging oil and gas sector and its recognition of its importance to the growth and development of the Guyana economy and Guyanese as a whole.

“We are the premier technology company in Guyana and the only one adequately able to provide full service to the oil and gas sector,” said GTT’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Justin Nedd.

Nedd noted that for local and international connectivity, unparalleled holistic solutions are found at GTT, adding “we (GTT) continue to do more to improve our products and services to the oil and gas sector. For 2018, we will exceed the tremendous work done in 2017 and create more satisfied customers.”
