Mwabu is proud to be one of the founding partners of the N50 Project, fuelling digital transformation in challenging environments globally.
The N50 Project accelerates digital adoption and community enrichment through innovative applications, network design, and business models to enable the next 3.9 billion people to participate in the digital world. Broadband adoption will be accelerated and sustained, globally, through commercial, non-profit, government, and community partnerships.
The model is currently being tested in a pilot at a rural location in the US, and a rural village in Zambia, with Mwabu as a key partner.
