In the heart of Benin and Senegal’s villages, technology serves as a beacon, translating into tangible outcomes. Our vision remains clear—local businesses thriving, entrepreneurs empowered, and communities seamlessly connected. It’s about real impact—village groceries reaching broader markets, tailors serving global customers, and community health centers offering enhanced services. This transformation is a collaborative symphony, where shared knowledge shapes progress. We listen to our digital rural family’s stories, and we are confident in tailoring solutions that amplify their potential. Together, we’ll cultivate fertile ground for innovation, nurture the seeds of opportunity, and watch, with pride, as a new dawn breaks over a transformed landscape, where rural and digital are no longer opposing forces but two sides of the same transformative coin. As we open this new chapter and continue our journey, let’s cultivate growth, sow the seeds of knowledge, and foster a future where every individual has the power to thrive—where rural and digital prosperity flourish hand in hand with Dots for.

At Dots for, our mission extends beyond villages. When we’re not on the ground building the infrastructure to digitally connect rural communities, we’re out in the world making the connections that will shape the future. Earlier this month, Dots for team members attended MWC Barcelona, one of the world’s largest gatherings for technology and connectivity. For many of our local team members, it was an eye-opening experience—a moment that showed just how vast the world is, and how much opportunity lies ahead. But soon, this experience won’t just be for us—it will also be for the people living in villages across rural Africa. With Dots for, they too will realize that the world is much bigger in opportunities. And most importantly, they will be able to access them from their home. We are building bridges between local communities and global markets, between untapped talent and limitless potential. The world is big, but with Dots for, all “dots” are connected.

「村で出されたものは全部食べますし、美味しいです。」 “I eat everything served in the village, and it is delicious.” This simple yet profound statement, shared by our CEO Carlos Oba, embodies the philosophy that drives us at Dots for. Whether in Senegal or Benin, our mission begins with one fundamental principle: earning the trust of the communities we serve. Trust isn’t built through words alone—it’s cultivated through actions, humility, and genuine connection. Just as our CEO embraces the local culture with openness and respect, everyone at Dots for approaches every village with the same mindset. Before introducing our services, we take the time to understand, listen, and engage. We recognize that transformation starts with relationships. By putting trust and humility first, we break down barriers and create meaningful collaborations. It allows us to see the real challenges faced by these communities and provide solutions that truly make a difference. At Dots for, we become part of the journey, side by side with the people we serve.
