Connecting Ethiopia.
Regulatory guidance for Telecom Operators and VAS Providers.
The Digital Shift
The liberalization of the telecom sector has created massive opportunities, but the Ethiopian Communications Authority (ECA) maintains a strict regulatory regime. From spectrum allocation to consumer protection, compliance is non-negotiable.
We assist Value Added Service (VAS) providers, ISPs, and equipment importers in navigating the ECA's licensing framework.
Data Sovereignty
With new data protection proclamations, we help tech companies structure their data storage and processing to comply with local sovereignty requirements.
