wi-tribe & Microsoft Alliance to Enhance Online Experiences

Aiming to take internet users’ online experience to the next level, wi-tribe, Pakistan’s No. 1 Broadband, has joined hands with Microsoft to promote its faster and lighter browser, Internet Explorer 9 (IE9). This is another industry-first by wi-tribe, adding more value to their customers’ online experience.

Through this partnership, wi-tribe will ensure easy availability of one of the most secure, widely deployed and easy-to-use web browsers for its customers, which is sure to enhance their online experience by enabling the latest, media-rich websites. IE9 is a highly advanced browser that supports HTML5, and promises to deliver a seamless and secure internet browsing experience, empowered by a robust set of built-in security and privacy features.

In addition to this partnership, wi-tribe is also proud to be recognized as a Microsoft Registered Partner status. For both wi-tribe and Microsoft, these are some of many exciting steps to be taken during this strategic alliance, aimed at bringing a greater range of world-class offerings to the market by exploiting the long-term synergy between both companies.

Speaking about Microsoft & wi-tribe’s new venture, CEO of wi-tribe Pakistan, Mustafa Peracha, says: 

“As a registered partner, wi-tribe is very excited about collaborating with Microsoft for the global launch of Internet Explorer 9, a cutting-edge browser promising a captivating and superior web browsing experience for customers and developers alike. We are confident that this alliance will bring a host of value additions to our own community of users, enhancing their online experience to an entirely new and refreshing level. This is an exciting start of a long-term partnership.”

Commenting on the collaboration with wi-tribe Pakistan, Kamal Ahmed, Country General Manager, Microsoft Pakistan said:

“The inclusion of Pakistani technology companies in the browser launch is a breakthrough by the Internet Explorer product team. Together Microsoft and wi-tribe can deliver a lot of convenience to Internet users in Pakistan. Such synergies have a positive effect on the overall market scenario for the companies and, in addition, wi-tribe customers can feel more privileged. I think it is imperative for any efficient browser to localize itself as per the dynamics of emerging IT markets, such as Pakistan. I am sure that this partnership will bring a collection of value additions to wi- tribe users, enriching their browsing experience in a beautiful way.”
