GLOBAL VOICE GROUP STARTS RENOVATING THE SITES THAT WILL HOUSE ITS CYBER CENTERS IN GUINEA

Conakry, February 22, 2011 –Global Voice Group’s team in Guinea starts this week the restoration work at the sites selected to house the Cyber Centers that will be donated to the citizens of the five districts of Conakry.

Last January, the Group announced its commitment to fund, build and equip the above-mentioned facilities. This was a joint initiative of Global Voice Group and the ARPT (Guinean Post and Telecommunication Regulatory Agency) aiming to make the Internet more accessible to local communities. Represented by its Deputy Director, Mr. Baldé, the ARPT was involved from the outset in the project. The Agency helped Global Voice Group in selecting the sites in the five districts of Conakry and committed to provide Internet connection to each of the Cyber Centers.

In addition to renovating the sites and providing equipment, Global Voice Group will also recruit the Guinean management teams who will be in charge of each cyber center.

Under this corporate policy, the company commits to take concrete action to improve the situation of the communities with respect to education, digital skills and entrepreneurship.
