Abu Dhabi, UAE, 18 July 2024 Al Yah Satellite Communications Company PJSC (Yahsat), the UAE's flagship satellite solutions provider, organised a high-level forum with several Zimbabwean Government Ministries, providing live demonstrations of its newest space technology.
The forum was conducted in cooperation with Satcom Technologies, Yahsat's recently appointed partner in Zimbabwe to explore new satellite communications opportunities in the African country. The event occurred on 17 July at the Hyatt Regency, Harare, and attracted high-level delegates from the Zimbabwean Government.
The forum discussed how Yahsat's state-of-the-art space technology can connect communities to essential online services. Zimbabwean officials also took part in a series of live demonstrations showcasing Yahsat's latest Telemedicine and e-Learning solutions. The attendees gained first-hand knowledge about the significant impact of Yahsat's products and services and how the Zimbabwean Government can leverage space technology as part of its plans to develop the education and health sectors.
Ali Al Hashemi, Group Chief Executive Officer of Yahsat, said: We are delighted with the response we received from attendees at the showcase of our space technology solutions. Our satellite-based solutions make it possible to connect communities in even the most isolated areas reliably and securely so that people can access crucial e-Learning and Telemedicine solutions. The Government of Zimbabwe expressed their interest in these solutions after witnessing the demonstrations.
Sulaiman Al Ali, Chief Commercial Officer of Yahsat, said: The partnership between Yahsat and Satcom Technologies is a testament to our commitment to actively contribute to bridging the digital divide experienced by underserved communities across Africa. We believe that by combining our expertise with Satcom Technologies, we can significantly enhance Zimbabwe's connectivity infrastructure and contribute to its economic development.
Tafadzwa Collins Semu, CEO of SATCOM Technologies, added: Satcom is excited about our strategic partnership with Yahsat, which enables us to deliver much-needed solutions to our target sectors. We received strong interest from various Zimbabwe Government Ministries during the forum. The live showcase was a huge success as both partners and government officials experienced the advanced capabilities of Yahsat's space tech solutions first-hand and witnessed how such solutions can make a real difference in improving access to education, health, and other services for millions of people.
The agreement with Satcom Technologies is the latest example of Yahsat's determination to provide advanced satellite communication technology to transform the country's connectivity, and technological capabilities in communities across Zimbabwe.
These solutions allow users even in the most remote areas to access essential public services in e-Learning, Telemedicine, Mobility, and Fixed solutions while acting as a catalyst to drive sustainable economic growth.
