NuRan Wireless ($NUR / $NRRWF), a leader in mobile and broadband wireless infrastructure solutions, is changing that narrative. With a staggering $800 million in signed contracts over the next decade across seven countries, including partnerships with two of the world's largest mobile network operators, NuRan is making waves in the telecommunications industry. 5 YEAR PLAN TARGETS $200,000,000 IN ANNUAL REVENUE Within five years, NuRan aims to operate 10,000 sites, generating $200 million in revenue and $100 million in EBITDA, spanning 15 countries across two continents.
