Dubai Chamber of Commerce supports expansion of IT firm AfroVision Technologies into Ghana

Dubai Chamber of Commerce, one of the three chambers operating under the umbrella of Dubai Chambers, has supported the expansion of AfroVision Technologies, a Dubai-based information technology company, into Ghana. Dubai International Chamber's representative office in Ghana played a key role in facilitating this expansion by connecting AfroVision Technologies with On-Point Virtual Assistants, a Ghanaian company specialising in business process outsourcing. This collaboration culminated in the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the two companies, thanks to the support provided by the chamber's Ghana office. Under the terms of the agreement, On-Point Virtual Assistants will represent the 'Doballi' platform in Ghana. Doballi is operated by the Dubai-registered company of the same name, which is a subsidiary of AfroVision Technologies. The agreement will see On-Point deliver training courses to IT students in Ghana, equipping them with the skills required for remote work. Upon completion, participants will be enrolled on the Doballi platform to take on remote employment opportunities. Doballi is a specialised digital platform that focuses on connecting tech talent with remote job opportunities. It enables companies to benefit from skilled professionals across the African continent in the field of information technology through a remote working model. Commenting on the partnership, Salem Al Shamsi, Vice President of International Relations at Dubai Chambers, stated, 'We remain committed to supporting the establishment of promising partnerships between Dubai-based companies and their counterparts around the world to drive sustainable business growth. In doing so, we are further strengthening the ability of local companies to expand globally and enhancing the competitiveness of Dubai's private sector.' Osita Oparaugo, Founder of Doballi, a company of AfroVision Technologies Limited, commented, 'We extend our sincere gratitude to the Dubai International Chamber office in Ghana for their invaluable support in advancing Doballi's mission to harness and onboard qualified tech talent from Ghana and across West Africa. At Doballi, we are dedicated to connecting expertly vetted African tech professionals with global opportunities, ready to work across all time zones. Our strategic focus on Dubai aligns with our broader business objectives and global outreach goals.' He added, 'Our recently signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with OnPoint BPO, along with other partnerships currently underway, stand as a testament to our shared commitment to driving innovation and opportunity through collaboration.'

Orange Middle East and Africa and risingSUD join forces

This three-year partnership aims to bring together innovation ecosystems in Africa, the Middle East and the South of France. At the Viva Technology trade show in Paris, Orange Middle East and Africa (OMEA), represented by CEO Jérôme Hénique, and risingSUD, led by President Bernard Kleynhoff, announced a strategic partnership designed to accelerate the international growth of African startups. The agreement, spanning three years, will support the integration of startups from the Orange Digital Centre network into the dynamic business environment of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southern France. The partnership aims to connect innovation ecosystems across Africa, the Middle East and southern France. Startups within the Orange Digital Centre network will receive dedicated support from risingSUD, the regional economic development agency, to establish operations in an area already home to 500,000 companies, including global tech leaders and forward-thinking startups. This collaboration strengthens OMEA’s efforts to internationalise African and Middle Eastern startups and highlights its broader commitment to nurturing entrepreneurship across the continent. With a presence in 17 countries in Africa and the Middle East and eight in Europe, the Orange Digital Centre network offers an inclusive and accessible platform for digital training, startup incubation and acceleration, and project funding. Already this year, risingSUD has helped 14 African businesses set up in southern France, including Guépard, a startup from the Orange Digital Centre in Tunisia, which recently opened an office in Marseille. The new partnership will expand such opportunities, enabling more startups from Africa and the Middle East to benefit from risingSUD’s expertise, whether through project support, financing access, or connections with international partners. It also opens pathways for local talent and entrepreneurs in southern France to engage with the Orange Digital Center network. ?Commenting on the partnership, Jérôme Hénique, CEO of Orange Middle East and Africa, commented: “This partnership with risingSUD marks a key step in our ambition to promote African innovation internationally. It is a continuation of the support we offer startups through our Orange Digital Centers. By facilitating their establishment and acceleration in France, particularly in the South region, we are giving young African companies the means to accelerate their growth.” Bernard Kleynhoff, President of risingSUD and President of the Economic and Digital Development, Industry, Export, Attractiveness and Cybersecurity Commissions of the Sud Region, added: 'Thanks to its strategic position, its historical trade flows and its commitment to innovation, the South of France is a natural bridge between Europe, Africa and the Middle East. It is now the leading French region for hosting African investment projects. This partnership opens up new economic opportunities and constitutes a real springboard for the development of businesses on both sides of the Mediterranean.'
