🌍 Connecting Villages, Connecting the World: Dots for at MWC Barcelona 🌍
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.

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, we believe that transformation has no borders. What began as a bold idea in Japan has now traveled across the African continent—from Benin to Senegal and now, most recently, to Zambia. Just days ago, our team successfully installed the first DC box in Zambia. A new geography, a different rhythm—but the same mission and the same village-centered approach. We still follow the same commitment to building trust and our belief that technology, skills, and opportunity should be within everyone’s reach, no matter where they live didn't change. By expanding our reach, we’re connecting all the dots. From East Asia to West Africa and now Southern Africa, our model adapts, but our vision remains: unlock rural potential by enabling people, empowering communities, and creating access to a better future. As one school principal in Zambia shared after experiencing our DC video service: 🗣️ “I am proud that what you have developed in Benin and Senegal also works in Zambia, far away from where we are.” Crossing borders doesn’t mean changing who we are, it rather means bringing our purpose to new places, with humility, passion, and people at the center of everything. We’ve only just begun. 🌍✨

At Dots for, progress is built on shared effort. Small, purposeful actions that link together across time, space, and roles. Tasks started by one are pushed forward, piece by piece, by others in the chain. One person begins a task, another picks it up. A teammate supports from the ground, another brings it to completion above. When one part is done, it flows naturally into the next. This is how we move: together, in perfect relay. From Benin to Senegal and more, every service we deliver and every life we impact is the product of this chain. We work hand in hand—passing ideas, responsibilities, and support across borders, departments, and time zones. This spirit is not only practical but also symbolic. It reflects what we believe in at our core: collaboration, trust, and shared purpose. This chain is the reason we’ve come this far on our journey to unleash the constraints of rural Africa. It’s what allows us to keep growing, adapting, and innovating—without losing pace, quality, or care. And like any strong chain, its strength lies in each link—each person, each contribution, each “dot”.
