About this episode

The episode provides an update on the telecoms and ICT sector in Guyana, discussing its evolution, affordability, and current challenges.

Over the past five years or so, Guyana has been accelerating its digital development. We initially explored the state of the country's telecoms/ICT sector in 2019, and thought we needed an update. With longtime friend of the Podcast, IT and Internet Governance Strategist, Lance Hinds, we discuss: * how the telecoms and ICT space in Guyana has evolved; * service affordability; * the degree to which the public and private sectors are leveraging ICT; * the current strengths and challenges in the country's ICT/tech space; and * tech-related trends and opportunities Lance is seeing in Guyana.
