Daniel Becerra: Connecting the Unconnected in a Digitally Divided World
Daniel: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! Did you know that the world is digitally divided? Four billion people, or half the population of the planet, have never experienced the internet, but 3.4 billion live in places where there is 3G or 4G available. Connecting the unconnected has nothing to do with coverage. The real problems are affordability, consumer readiness, lack of relevant content, and poor power infrastructure. BuffaloGrid’s solar-powered StreamSpot+ gives users a place to charge mobile devices as well as access a world of digital content and services.
