"The announcement of the Uninor name is a significant milestone in the roll-out of the operations in India as we move closer to launch. As in Telenor Group's existing markets, the Uninor brand will represent our vision and core values," said Jon Fredrik Baksaas, president and CEO of the Telenor Group.
The Uninor name will leverage from Telenor Group's established marketing and design framework, increasing the efficiency and accuracy when introducing the brand to the Indian market, the company said.
