Liquid Intelligent Technologies (Liquid), a business of Cassava Technologies, a pan-African technology group, has announced the extension of its fibre network in Rwanda to cover the Nyamata, Huye, Muhanga, and Rusizi regions. The extended network coverage will provide internet connectivity to homes and businesses in the upcountry regions, with a special reduced-cost package for new subscribers.
Liquid Home has been at the forefront of connecting homes to fibre and providing high-speed internet connectivity across Africa since 2017. The expansion of the Liquid network in Rwanda is a significant step in achieving the vision of a digitally connected Rwanda. With Nyamata, Huye, Muhanga, and Rusizi joining several connected cities and estates in Kigali and upcountry, including the districts of Rubavu and Musanze, we are bringing the benefits of the digital age to more people. The fibre network deployment for other districts is also ongoing to increase fixed broadband penetration across the country.
“Fixed broadband internet penetration is relatively low, and expanding our network to these previously unconnected districts provides more households and businesses with affordable, reliable internet, reaffirming our commitment to bridging the country’s digital divide. Our tailored package for users in these four regions makes the internet connectivity even more affordable and accessible” said Alexis Kabeja, Chief Executive Officer of Liquid Intelligent Technologies Rwanda.
Users have access to an affordable package with 50Mbps internet speeds for only Rwf 20,000 per month, which provides them with the broadband connectivity they need to succeed in their daily busines. By extending further outside of the City of Kigali, Liquid Rwanda is empowering more citizens with the digital infrastructure they need to contribute to the country’s economic growth. As part of this initiative, we have made an exclusive package available to new subscribers in these upcountry regions. This package is designed to make high-speed, 24/7 internet access more affordable, with features such as unlimited data, free installation, and a dedicated customer support line. Driving internet penetration and bridging Rwanda’s digital divide is one of Liquid Rwanda’s key objectives and aligns with the company’s aim of a digitally enabled Africa in which no one is left behind.
