GABORONE. — Botswana mobile network operator Mascom has invested in a three-storey state-of-the-art and highly modern design Innovation Centre. The US$25 million 54-metre high, three-legged
iconic transmission telecommunications tower is one of the country’s fresh investments in the telecommunications sector. Commenting about the latest development, Mascom communication and public relations manager Tebogo Lebotse said the move would boost connectivity and deeper penetration into the countryside. “The Mascom Innovation Centre is a first of its kind in Botswana and comprises many features that set it apart. “The building is designed conscious of the environment with technologically advanced equipment installations,” said Lebotse. Botswana’s Vice President Lt-Gen Mompati Merafhe is expected to official open the facility early July in the capital, Gaborone. The unveiling of the Mascom giant infrastructure comes hard on the heels of introduction of the 4G LTE, by the leading mobile operator. — CAJ News. |
