Ethio Telecom pens a memorandum of understanding with Addis Ababa City Administration to implement Addis Ababa’s smart city project through the deployment of a wide area network (SD-WAN Network).
This new move is said to be pivotal in that it will enable easy interconnection of various bureaus, service rendering institutions, and the city administration with one main data center.
“The project will utilize state-of-the-art information communication technologies, contributing to the city’s growth as Africa’s headquarters and the seat of international organizations,” stated the duo during the signing ceremony held on June 6, 2023 at the Skylight hotel.
The project is also said to make Addis Ababa a technology hub, modernizing residents’ lifestyles whilst addressing data security concerns. Furthermore, the latest operating systems featured are stated as high-quality, reliable, and efficient, which enable quality services and maximize service provision capacity.
Recently, Ethio telecom also commenced the implementation of Adama City’s Smart City Project and will continue to make digital Ethiopia a reality by providing technology and digital solutions to similar institutions in Ethiopia.
