Gluwa’s CEO, Tae Oh, humbly met the President of Liberia, Joseph Boakai, to discuss enhancements to Liberia’s financial and internet connectivity infrastructure.

Gluwa, known for its blockchain innovations such as Credal, which powers public blockchain infrastructure, is exploring the possibility of building a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) for Liberia. The initiative would require extensive compatibility with Liberia’s existing mobile money system, as President Boakai recognizes its critical role in Liberia’s digital economy.

The discussion extended to address one of Liberia’s most pressing challenges: its slow internet connectivity, which stands as a significant barrier to digital inclusivity, especially in rural areas. To support the overcoming of this challenge, Gluwa proposed the introduction of a satellite-based Internet Service Provider (ISP) specifically designed to extend low-cost internet connectivity to rural areas. Gluwa’s ISP solution also aims to provide the necessary infrastructure to support the complementary usage and accessibility of the country’s CBDC solution, and as a result, enhance overall accessibility to digital financial services across the country.

Gluwa’s CEO Tae Oh’s meetings with top officials within African countries serve as humbling opportunities to learn more about each government’s commitment to economic growth and inclusion through technological solutions.
