Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations to Receive Honorary Award at Yango Mobility Digital Awards*
In recognition of his outstanding contributions to Ghana’s digital transformation, the Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations, Hon. Samuel Nartey George, will receive an honorary award at the upcoming Yango Mobility Digital Awards.
A team from Yango, a leading ride-hailing service provider, paid a courtesy call on the Minister yesterday to inform him of the award. This prestigious recognition is a testament to the Minister’s tireless efforts to promote innovation, entrepreneurship, and digital inclusion in Ghana.
As a key player in Ghana’s tech ecosystem, Yango has been at the forefront of promoting digital mobility and innovation. The company has been recognizing outstanding partners and drivers in Ghana and other countries, including Ethiopia, through its Digital Mobility Awards.
Yango’s initiatives extend beyond the ride-hailing service, as the company has been actively involved in promoting innovation and entrepreneurship in Ghana. For instance, Yango partnered with Zindi Africa to organize the Accra Mobility Prediction Hackathon, which brought together over 200 data science students and technology enthusiasts to develop innovative solutions for mobility challenges in Accra.
In response to the award, Hon. Samuel Nartey George expressed his gratitude to Yango for the recognition. “I am honored to receive this award, which is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team at the Ministry. We will continue to work tirelessly to promote digital transformation and innovation in Ghana, and we look forward to collaborating with Yango and other stakeholders to achieve this goal.”
The Yango Mobility Digital Awards are expected to take place soon, and the event will bring together key stakeholders in Ghana’s mobility and tech ecosystem to celebrate innovation and excellence.
