Lukas Duursema our CEO for that hub will be permanently based with him team here in Ethiopia. The reason why we have chosen Ethiopia is outlined already about all the great capability Ethiopian has shown to continuously grow business so we believe really that there is a significant amount of business we will be able to support in Ethiopia. But on the other hand, Ethiopia also has great attributes when it comes to connectivity not only within Africa but also with other countries.”
