connectivity

In today’s world, access to digital devices and the internet has become a cornerstone of daily life. As technology advances, many countries are making efforts to ensure that their citizens have the necessary tools to participate in the digital revolution.

Ghana enjoys a high degree of connectivity with one of the highest mobile network operator voice penetration rates in Sub-Saharan Africa at 131.84% and data penetration at 85.99%. It has been ranked number one in Africa as the country with one of the fastest internet broadband speeds per the speedtest global index. The expansion of internet networks and smartphone ownership has supported a rapid growth of digital services in business as seen particularly in the rise of mobile money. Consequently, the ripple effect of the increase in mobile data penetration and mobile money platforms is seen in the transformation of the Ghanaian economy which has boosted financial inclusion and created avenues for companies to market their products.
