Behind every smooth service, there’s a team making thoughtful choices—often right on the ground. At Dots for, one of our key performance practices in rural areas is the field plenary session. After a day of activity, our teams often come together—sitting down as a unit—to reflect on their Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), discuss challenges, and adjust plans for the next steps. These moments serve to motivate each other and adjust our strategy in real time. From improving how we serve each customer, to finding better ways to respond to a community’s needs, these sessions ensure that nothing is left to chance. This simple but powerful habit helps us stay efficient, agile, and deeply connected to our mission of unlocking opportunities for rural communities. Dots for believes that progress often starts with a group of committed people sharing insights. And our particularity is that we share insights in the field as well. Let’s keep showing up, checking in, and growing together.

It feels like just yesterday that our team had the honor of attending TICAD 9, Japan’s largest international conference focused on African development. It was a powerful and inspiring event that brought together innovators, decision-makers, and visionaries from across the globe all in one place. At our booth, we had the chance to receive distinguished members of Japanese government and other stakeholders and share the work Dots for is doing in rural areas of Benin, Senegal and beyond. What impacted us most was their genuine interest, shared by companies and other organizations, in what we’ve accomplished. Many recognized in our work a true opportunity both for partnership and for meaningful impact. But beyond new collaborations, TICAD 9 reminded us of something even deeper: the value of the work we do every day in rural communities. Sometimes, when you’re in the field—navigating challenges, solving problems, close to the clients—it’s easy to get caught up in the routine of the work and overlook the scale of change we’re making. The praise that we received at TICAD is a testament to the profound transformation we are driving in rural Africa, with impact reaching far beyond, across the world. Being there reaffirmed that what we are building is not just useful—it’s essential. The world is watching, and rural Africa is full of untapped potential. Dots for is making sure to unveil that, and we’re just getting started.

Over time, our basket of services at Dots for has grown significantly, and with it, so has our responsibility to ensure that every customer fully understands how to use them to their advantage. From skill-empowering educational content to innovative tools for income generation, our services are designed to create real, tangible benefits—but it’s our incredible team that bridges the gap between potential and reality. Our teams go the extra mile every day, working tirelessly to explain the concrete benefits of our digital services in a way that resonates with our customers. In rural communities, it’s often not immediately clear how a smartphone can become a tool for earning money or expanding opportunities. This is where our team shines—helping villagers see the potential in their hands, empowering them to learn new skills, sell their products, or offer services to a broader audience. With every new service we introduce, we’re not just expanding what we offer—we’re innovating ways to transform lives. Our mission remains clear: to improve livelihoods and unlock opportunities in even the most remote villages. Our growth is driven by a shared vision to empower rural communities, and we’re proud of our team’s dedication to making this vision a reality, one customer at a time.
