The telecommunications market in Africa is taking off. For many years, telecommunications has taken a back seat to other infrastructure needs such as agriculture, roads, power, railways, etc. Now countries are starting to realise that not only have they missed getting a telephone in each village, but they now need "Internet Access" as well. Privatisation and liberalisation are new found methods to raise the necessary infrastructure investment. Some countries are moving more aggressively than others.

Cost effective technology is now becoming available to meet the needs that once were considered to be satisfied by fixed wireline services. These new technologies include fixed wireless access, mobile telephony, fiber optics and soon, satellite telephone and data. "Africa Telecom & Middle East Telecom" newsletter will keep you up to date with these new developments, market opportunities, technologies and much more.
