Corporate Partnerships and Negotiations Announced in African Markets

Bolt and Gebeya have partnered to provide affordable transportation for Africa's service workforce, with the initiative starting in Kenya and Ghana. This collaboration aims to ease mobility challenges for independent workers by offering them discounted rides. In a separate deal, Africa Data Centres has partnered with CSSi SA to strengthen South Africa's digital infrastructure. This will involve deploying racks and providing data sovereignty solutions to meet the demand for reliable data storage and colocation services. Meanwhile, MultiChoice subscribers in Kenya and across Africa face the potential loss of 12 major channels from Warner Bros Discovery, including Discovery Channel and CNN International. The channels could be removed starting December 31 if ongoing negotiations fail, a development that comes as Canal+ acquires MultiChoice and seeks to streamline costs.
