Tareq A Almarzouq of the IT Department, Kuwait Ministry of Higher Education said: "The Mitel IP telephony solution has provided MoHE with a flexible, future proofed foundation to develop enhanced applications to evolve with our business and its continuing needs.

The fact that high-profile governmental departments recognize the benefits of Mitel's portfolio of innovative platforms, applications and phones is a proof point that we meet all of the strict requirements and expectations of governmental ministries ," said Hisham Amili, Mitel GM, GCC.
