Dubai — e& UAE, the flagship telecom arm of global technology group e&, today announced the launch of OneWork, a fully sovereign, cloud-based unified communication and collaboration platform built within the UAE to serve organisations operating across the UAE. Designed to meet national data sovereignty requirements while enabling advanced digital transformation, OneWork delivers secure, enterprise-grade communication services from infrastructure hosted and managed in the UAE.
Developed and operated entirely within the UAE, OneWork ensures that enterprise communications, data, and workloads remain in-country, providing organisations with enhanced regulatory alignment, data residency assurance, and operational control.
