The internet and telecoms companies SEACOM and Ciena have formed a partnership to deliver faster internet speeds in Africa.
SEACOM launched its undersea internet cable to provide access to the web to the continent in 2009, and its partnership with Ciena will help it to ensure better connections and faster speeds for users.
Internet penetration is low in Africa compared to the rest of the world. SEACOM and Ciena hope that by providing a faster connection this will encourage more Africans to come online.
