Dark Fibre Africa initiative (DFA)
Dark Fibre Africa initiative (DFA)
In an effort to build and manage a nationwide fibre optic cable-ducting infrastructure, the DFA initiative was established. This infrastructure was then leased out to licensed operators on an equal basis to ensure no single operator has a monopoly over fibre optic telecommunications infrastructure.
The KZN Growth Fund came in as a co-funding partner and through our investment DFA has been a resounding success, seeing massive growth and infrastructure development in many regions nationwide.
