Liquid Technologies has upgraded its fibre route connecting Kenya and Uganda, which the company says will increase capacity and reliability. This will improve digital connectivity for businesses and individuals in the region, Liquid said during the ITW summit held in Nairobi. Liquid aims to provide 99.99% uptime for its services between Mombasa and the Uganda border.
The upgraded route will support critical business sectors across East Africa, providing reliable, high-capacity networks essential for digital transformation and economic development. It will also complement the Kenyan government’s digital transformation initiatives.
“This expansion is aligned with Liquid’s vision of a digitally connected Africa that leaves no one behind. The improved connectivity provided by this route, complementing our existing routes to the Uganda border, will support critical business sectors across the region, providing reliable, high-capacity networks essential for digital transformation and economic development,” said Adil El Youssefi, Chief Executive Officer of Liquid Intelligent Technologies: Rest of Africa.
“Liquid’s investment also complements the Kenyan government’s digital transformation initiatives, contributing the infrastructure and connectivity needed to develop digital superhighways and digitise services.”
Liquid says it is dedicated to providing a connected Africa through its extensive fibre network, spanning over 110,000 kilometres.
