Tuyeimo Haidula
Mobile Telecommunications Limited (MTC), the main sponsor of the Ongwediva Annual Trade Fair (OATF), announced it will host the inaugural MTC Tech Hub Conference at the upcoming trade fair in August.

MTC's manager for sponsorships and promotions, corporate affairs, John Ekongo, told the media during a press conference in Ongwediva over the weekend that the pilot project will take place on 28 August at the OATF grounds. The trade fair will be held from 23 to 31 August.

Ekongo said the conference aims to showcase cutting-edge technological advancements with a specific focus on enhancing digital inclusivity in the country and to give visitors to the trade fair a different experience.

“This will also be a chance to increase brand awareness, get real-time feedback from users and allow those exhibiting to advertise their products,” he said.

Ekongo said the conference is expected to host about 100 people from enterprises, the agriculture sector, the directorate of education and the general public. Moreover, different areas of the trade fair grounds will be provided with free Wi-Fi for visitors.

Ekongo expressed hope that this initiative will also attract the Gen Z generation to the trade fair.
