YooMee is a transformational high speed broadband service provider with a footprint in Cameroon and Cote d’Ivoire, and a vision to help close the digital divide across sub-Saharan Africa. YooMee’s experiences offer a direct comparison of the practicalities of rolling out a high speed mobile broadband service before and after the entry of independent towercos. YooMee launched is operations in Cameroon in 2011, before the transfer of MTN and Orange’s towers to IHS, and found its time to market significantly accelerated as it as it utilized IHS’s shared sites when they launched more recently in Cote d’Ivoire.
