A Vodafone Group R&D Lab
the open mobile solutions community
Praekelt Foundation
Our aim is to design and implement large-scale mobile solutions that can impact the lives of people living in poverty.
We have three open source mobile tools, through which we improve access to information and services to people at the base of the pyramid:
1) TxtAlert (SMS-based appointment reminder tool)
2) SocialTxt (mass-scale broadcast messaging tool)
3) MobiCMS (Mobile content delivery tool)
Our focus is Africa and other emerging economies.
We would love to partner with NGO's, corporations, multi-nationals and governments to deliver low-cost, mass scale mobile solutions in the health, education/information, agriculture, advocacy and social marketing fields.
What is a Community Partner?
A Social Exchange Community Partner is an organisation that has registered with Betavine as having an interest in one or more mobile-based services for the developing world. Community Partners benefit from increased visibility on the site as well as additional administrative privileges that help them better communicate their project goals to others. If you'd like to become a Community Partner you can register your organisation here.
