A1 Group celebrates
25 years listing

The IPO

On November 21, 2000, our company was successfully listed on the Stock Exchange. The initial public offering was a milestone that opened access to the capital market for us and accelerated our transformation from a national telecom provider to a modern, internationally operating corporation.

“For 25 years, A1 Group has been listed on the stock exchange — today, we are proud to stand as a leading digitalization partner in CEE, recognized for sustainable growth, a strong market position, and a brand synonymous with quality and innovation across the region. Building on our strong telecommunications roots, we have consistently evolved into an integrated ICT provider — a transformation that motivates us to continue setting new standards in the future.”
Alejandro Plater, CEO A1 Group

“A quarter of a century of stock market presence marks not only economic success but also continuous transformation. We are driving digital and sustainable change with determination — acting responsibly toward our customers, employees, and society. At the same time, as one of the country’s largest infrastructure investors, we are committed to sustainably shaping the future of Austria.”
Thomas Arnoldner, Deputy CEO
