Medallion Communications Limited (MCL) was founded through a strategic collaboration of telecom experts with deep industry experience and diverse backgrounds. The company was created with a clear vision: to help bridge the digital divide between developing and developed countries.
Headquartered in Lagos, Nigeria—with a key data center located there—Medallion also maintains operations in North America and several other African countries.
Medallion’s mission is to develop and manage carrier-neutral telecom infrastructure that enables operators to deliver reliable, efficient, and affordable services to the public—without bias or restrictions.
To achieve this, Medallion builds secure, high-tech interconnect switching centers that facilitate the exchange of telecom traffic—including voice, SMS, fax, and video—between different operators. These services are available to all players in the ecosystem, from mobile and fixed-line providers to value-added service and content providers.
Medallion’s infrastructure is built to be robust and protocol-independent, supporting both traditional TDM and modern IP-based networks. It’s also designed for seamless integration with Internet Exchange Points (IXPs), ensuring local content providers are fully supported.
