Leo, let's discuss the digital landscape in Guinea-Bissau and Senegal. Which offers better internet for, say, uploading videos?
Internet infrastructure is key, Mira. While Senegal, with its larger cities, might have more hotspots, Guinea-Bissau is making strides with mobile internet. Slow internet is better than none, especially for a comedian like me.
True! But what about digital innovation? Is either country becoming a tech hub?
Senegal is pushing for tech hubs and startups, creating a mini-ecosystem. Guinea-Bissau is prioritizing basic connectivity first.
So, Senegal is more ambitious, while Guinea-Bissau focuses on fundamentals. What about internet speeds?
Senegal generally offers better speeds, particularly in Dakar. Guinea-Bissau's speeds… require patience.
As a content creator, Senegal wins on speed, but Guinea-Bissau gets points for effort. What about mobile coverage?
Senegal provides decent coverage in populated areas. Guinea-Bissau's coverage is more sporadic.
Is either country investing in infrastructure improvements?
Senegal is investing in fiber and 4G upgrades. Guinea-Bissau is working on this, but has other priorities, such as basic electricity access.
For tech entrepreneurs, which market offers better potential?
Senegal has a more developed digital ecosystem, making it easier to launch a startup. Guinea-Bissau, despite challenges, could be a promising market.
Finally, which country is more likely to have decent WiFi at a street food stall?
Dakar, Senegal, is a safer bet, but it's a gamble in both countries. A portable hotspot is recommended.
