#GITEXAfrica Video Interview ▶️ Empowering Telco Operators in Africa: PROTEI's Vision and Strategic Approach 🌍 Discover how PROTEI is revolutionizing telecommunications in Africa with flexible solutions and a commitment to local empowerment: https://lnkd.in/dh7v-2Ax At GITEX Africa 2024, Akim Benamara (Chief Editor, TechAfrica News) interviewed Vladimir Freinkman, VP of Marketing and Business Development at Protei. Freinkman shared insights into how Protei addresses the unique challenges of the African telecom market and highlights the company’s dedication to fostering local competence and providing affordable, high-quality solutions. “In Africa, Protei prefers not to insist on a managed services approach. We value local competence and encourage operators to manage their networks independently. This model aligns well with the expectations of many local operators who prefer to have control and knowledge over their own networks. While this approach might mean less revenue for us from managed services, it fosters greater operator autonomy and aligns with our goal of sharing knowledge and building operator capabilities.” — Vladimir Freinkman, VP of Marketing and Business Development, PROTEI 🔍 Watch the full interview to learn how Protei is empowering African telco operators to thrive in a rapidly changing landscape: https://lnkd.in/dh7v-2Ax #TechAfricaNews #Africa #GITEXAfrica2024 #Protei #Innovation #TelecomSolutions #LocalEmpowerment #PrivateNetworks

CEO, Executive Leadership Coach, Tech Executive & Investor, Advisor to Boards, Operating at the Intersection of Marketing & Technology, Keynote Speaker
Open access networks are transforming the telecom landscape, offering a promising path to bridge the digital divide and foster competition across the African continent. These networks allow multiple service providers to utilize shared infrastructure, potentially accelerating broadband deployment and improving consumer choice. Key benefits for Africa include: ⚙️ Increased efficiency through shared infrastructure 🚀 Enhanced competition and innovation 💰 Improved return on investment for network builders 🛜 Greater transparency in network operations Open access is particularly critical for publicly funded national broadband networks and in areas with economic bottlenecks preventing competitive supply. In Africa, where internet penetration is only around 54%, implementing open access strategies could significantly boost connectivity and drive economic growth. However, challenges remain. Long-term exclusivity agreements can contradict open access principles, while attracting diverse retail service providers can be difficult. To succeed, the industry must: • Discourage long-term exclusivity deals • Create supportive ecosystems for new entrants • Balance investment incentives with open access requirements Companies like Link Africa™ are already making strides in this direction, providing open-access subsea and terrestrial network infrastructures to accelerate Africa's digital transformation. So it was an absolute pleasure to host Imran Abbas, the CEO at #AliTalksTech on the sidelines of NOVACOM AFRICA 1-to-1 TELCO SUMMITS in Cape Town. Be sure to look out for the full episode in the coming day. What are your thoughts? #Telecom #OpenAccess #DigitalInclusion #AfricanTech KICTANet, Barrack Otieno, Mwendwa Kivuva
