Over the last nine years, Pankaj Kulshrestha, Group COO of Eaton Towers, has worked on some extremely high profile tower deals. Now leading operations at Eaton, he has the exciting task of bringing efficiency and profitability to a portfolio of 7,770 towers across the African continent. TowerXchange caught up with him to discuss how closely the current portfolio matches Eaton’s plans, how their local teams and knowledge are providing a competitive edge and what capex investments are being prioritised as new tower integration takes priority.

Pankaj Kulshrestha, Group COO, Eaton Towers:
