"We've created a mobile solution that helps in improving communication between citizens and their municipalities" @Pulego - one of the exciting SMME's exhibiting at the #ITUinSA18
IoT shouldn't be looked at purely from a tech POV, but should also be looked at as an enabler that has the potential to sustain our environment and with up to 70 million objects and things connected to date, Vodacom is focussed on pioneering access to this innovation. #ITUworld
Vodacom Business Chief Officer, William Mzimba, stated: "For any technology to get into the disruptive phase, we need to improve the user interface right on the edge." @mohalemz
Congratulations to @Pulego for winning the Global SME Excellence Award. They have created a solution that helps in improving communication between citizens and their municipalities #ITUWorld#ITUinSA18
The roll out of IoT services also gives rise to connected classrooms that give young students important access to study materials and government needs to assist by fostering meaningful partnerships with service providers to help make disruptive technology available. #ITUworld
To help accelerate the adoption of IoT use, real value needs to be presented to customers in highlighting how this technology provides solutions to challenges faced by African societies. #ITUworld
It's important to find industry use-cases that positively change the lives of underprivileged members of society, and one such example is Vodacom's Connected Farmer initiative that enables subsistence farmers to become highly productive and sustain their livelihood. #ITUworld
