It’s Possible To Do Hard Things In Difficult Places

Technology

Erik Hersman

Founder of leading tech company connecting Africa, BRCK

“The reason we do this is so that people are able to have a better lively hood and be apart of their global digital economy.”

Around 800 million people in Africa don’t have access to the internet. Erik Hersman and his team at BRCK want to change that.

They're on a mission to connect people and things across the continent; getting individuals and businesses online and helping them to fully utilise that access.
