As a hub country with connected and equipped technological infrastructures, Senegal has less than five web sites that provide information on information and communication technology.
There is a demand in tech news. In Senegal, there are more than 6 million internet ( Mobile ) subscribers (out of a population of over 14 million inhabitants).

The content also comprises the categories of Tips, Social Media and IT Business Knowledge. We also accommodate contributions from invited authors. Videos play an important role in our platform. We develop short videos to inform users about the current technology.
