Today we connected with Geneva's blockchain community to gather insights that will help us build a connectivity credits marketplace. This scheme is designed to incentivize ISPs for connecting schools FAST and with the traceability of the blockchain. We thank everyone who joined us this afternoon. #ConnectivityCreditsMarketplace #Blockchain #ConnectEverySchool
Alex Bahati - thanks for your valuable comments - 100% agree on the need to find a financing mechanism for small ISPs to connect schools, and am working on this at Giga (Connectivity Credits). And 100% agree on the need to design this solution inside out - working on that, and have sent you a DM. For any other entrepreneurs and small ISPs interested in connecting schools as anchor clients for expanding your business - please DM me and I would love to talk with you.
Thank you for inviting The Hashgraph Association - Hedera both myself and Micha Roon were honoured to take part and look ahead to assist Giga.

@Giga Let's hope when you start implementing this connectivity in Africa, you will use Local ISPs than always import like most UN Agencies and NGOs do...By using local ISPs you are indirectly creating jobs and empowering local innovators.
Wonderful having you with us ⚡ Decentral House

3moGreat news! But for Africa the context is a little different. Apparently there is lack of basic infrastructure in many schools and sustainably implementing the project to realize the desired impact to the population of concern. We have tried this many times and some gaps have to be fixed to ensure success of the project
