Busyinternet Ghana Limited, a partnership between Ghanaian investors and a US-based technology company on Wednesday announced that Accra has been chosen as the first site in the set up of a series of internet centres across Africa.

These centres will provide individuals and businesses with the expertise and resources needed to promote and expand their traditional businesses into electronic commerce and other internet-related activities.


A statement by Yankah and Associates in Accra and signed by Mr. Kojo Yankah, the Chief Executive Officer, said the project is due to open in August this year.

It said plans are far advanced to launch two new centres each year to rapidly spread the project across Africa and create a network of excellence where participants and businesses can share best practices and help each other exploit new opportunities.


The statement said Ghana was chosen as the first site for the project because the country has a bright future in the global village that seems to be emerging.
