Layer3, one of Nigeria’s leading enterprise technology and digital infrastructure companies, has been recognised with two major honours at the 17th Africa’s Beacon of ICT Merit and Leadership Awards (ABoICT) 2026, receiving the awards for Best Cloud Services Provider of the Year and Enterprise Solutions Provider of the Year.

The awards recognise Layer3’s continued contribution to cloud infrastructure, enterprise technology, cybersecurity, managed services, connectivity, and digital transformation, as well as its role in helping organisations build resilient technology foundations in an increasingly digital economy.

For more than two decades, Layer3 has supported organisations across Nigeria with technology solutions designed to improve operational efficiency, strengthen security, enhance business continuity, and enable long-term growth. Through its broad portfolio of cloud, cybersecurity, connectivity, managed infrastructure, and enterprise technology services, the company has played a significant role in supporting the digital transformation journeys of organisations across both the public and private sectors.

Presented annually, the Africa’s Beacon of ICT Merit and Leadership Awards remain one of Nigeria’s most respected platforms for recognising organisations and industry leaders driving innovation, excellence, and impact across the information and communications technology sector. The awards celebrate contributions that continue to shape the future of technology adoption and digital development across Africa.

Layer3’s recognition comes at a pivotal moment for the technology industry. As organisations continue to accelerate cloud adoption, strengthen cybersecurity postures, modernise legacy systems, and invest in digital infrastructure, the demand for trusted technology partners has become increasingly important.

“This recognition reflects more than a single year of achievement. It represents over two decades of work helping organisations build the technology foundations they need to grow, innovate, and compete. We are honoured by the awards, and we see them as a responsibility to continue raising the standard for enterprise technology services in Nigeria,” said Oyaje Idoko, Chief Executive Officer of Layer3.

“Across industries, technology decisions are no longer isolated IT conversations. They are business decisions tied to resilience, efficiency, security, and long-term value creation. Our focus remains on helping organisations make those decisions with clarity and confidence while providing the infrastructure needed to support sustainable growth,” said Adenike Grillo, Head of Strategy and Business Development at Layer3.

The double recognition at ABoICT 2026 reinforces Layer3’s position as a trusted technology partner and highlights the company’s ongoing contribution to Nigeria’s digital transformation journey. It also reflects the dedication of its people, the trust of its customers, and a continued commitment to delivering technology solutions that help organisations succeed in an increasingly connected world.

As businesses navigate new opportunities and challenges presented by digital transformation, Layer3 remains focused on enabling innovation, supporting enterprise growth, and building the infrastructure that powers Nigeria’s digital economy.
