Africa’s Innovation Landscape

Africa currently has 1.4 billion people. 60% of these are under the age of 25, leading to youth-driven innovation. Nairobi, Kenya is rising as the regional tech and innovation hub. Denmark’s Innovation Centre is opening in Nairobi during 2026. Kenya is beacon of Digital Transformation across sectors with its Innovation Master Plan, AI Strategy, and investment into education and training of digital literacy – which Eferio Communications has played a key advisory role in – building lasting relationships.

XGN Africa - 5G Broadcasting for Africa

Eferio Communications, in joint venture with XGN Global, is deploying 5G broadcasting across Africa – a breakthrough technology that redefines how people access information, education, and entertainment.

5G Broadcast stands at the edge of a new communication era – delivering high-quality content instantly and efficiently, without WiFi, internet, or SIM cards. This innovation opens a world of possibilities: real-time emergency alerts, seamless live streaming, digital learning, and targeted communication accessible to everyone, everywhere.

Our mission is to build the infrastructure for a connected and resilient Africa – where every citizen can receive trusted information and education data-free. 5G broadcasting bridges the gap between reach and reliability, transforming how governments, broadcasters, and communities communicate.

By leveraging existing broadcast networks, 5G broadcasting reduces cost, energy consumption, and rollout time while delivering unmatched coverage and inclusion. It empowers public safety, supports education, and enables equitable access to digital content across the continent.

This is more than a technological leap, it is a movement toward a safer, smarter, and more connected Africa.

Goals

The joint venture’s goal is to develop, deploy, and commercialize 5G broadcasting infrastructure and services across Africa – creating a new foundation for inclusive communication and access to information.

5G broadcasting is designed to boost public safety through real-time emergency alerts and support first responders when it matters most. It also delivers media, education, and events to underserved communities without the need for internet or connectivity – empowering learning, awareness, and growth.

By enabling data-free access through unique broadcast frequencies, we promote digital inclusion and affordability at scale. This technology lays the groundwork for a hyper-connected continent, where information flows seamlessly, and opportunity becomes universal.

Our goal is to build not only infrastructure, but resilience, communication network that connects, protects, and empowers every citizen.

Technologies

At the core of our initiative lies the world’s most advanced 5G broadcasting ecosystem – a fusion of global innovation and local relevance.

We collaborate with industry leaders such as TRedess, Dielectric, Qualcomm, and Eutelsat OneWeb, combining Scandinavian engineering precision with African scalability. Together, we deliver a reliable, energy-efficient, and sustainable broadcast network built to global standards.

Using the FeMBMS (Further evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service) protocol, 5G broadcasting enables direct-to-device delivery without SIM cards, mobile data, or WiFi dependence. This ensures seamless communication in every environment – urban, rural, or remote.

Our technology brings the next generation of connectivity to life – transforming existing broadcast towers into multi-purpose communication hubs that serve governments, broadcasters, and communities alike.
