3. Introduction
● Availability of content is one of the major drivers for use of ICTs
● Locally relevant content is one of the key enablers of internet adoption.
(GSMA Intelligence SIM Survey, 2015)
● Lack of locally relevant content & awareness is the most important barrier
to Internet adoption for non-users
● Growing economies leverage content to extend economic growth potential

8. Problem Definition
• Lack of relevant local content to increase uptake of Botswana
Hotspots.
● Botswana Hotspots is heavily underutilized despite a huge
investment by the Universal Access & Service Fund and
Botswana Fibre Networks
● Lack of innovative packages
• Both entities are looking for solutions that would increase
uptake at both wholesale and retail level. Sources: BOFINET, 2016, UASF 2017
