Collaborating closely with the majority of telecom carriers, MATEC played a vital role in the establishment of primary communications infrastructures and its involvement reached from networks to transmissions backbones and from PABXs to terminals.

Intelligent networks for voice, data, text and video communications have emerged, necessitating wide-band, high-speed transmission systems employing terrestrial microwave radio, coaxial and fiber-optic cables. MATEC packaged the supplying and financing of such large communication networks.

MATEC actively contributed to the tremendous leaps in the industry's evolution from a teledensity of less than one telephone per 100 inhabitants in the early 80s to about ten telephones in the late 90s.

It installed more than 20,000 communication ports to provide tailor- made solutions to the specific though complex needs of a diverse clientele ranging from the banking, manufacturing, food, mining, transportation, trading and tourism sector, to cooperatives and people's organisations.

Alongside the present rapid technological developments in the communication field, MATEC continues to offer support and services to previous systems, such as Gentex facilities, still in use in rural communities.

As mankind enters the threshold to the next millennium, MATEC commits its continuing involvement, through traditional or modern means, to bring communication and information technology to the islands and to the farmer.
