Busy is indeed getting busy and moving at a fast pace in the data network industry. Previously providing an Internet WiMax Service, Busy has rebranded into a 4G service providing company.
The company formally opened up its colourful and ultra-modern experiential office to its customers recently. The event was MCéd by Kwame Gyan who paved way for the the Busy executives to make their speeches.
The CEO of Busy, Mr Praveen Sadalage gave a short speech to media and guests present on how the internet can be used to empower Ghanaians in every aspect of their lives. Definitely a key point there as many Ghanaian businesses are selling online on either social media or on their online stores using platforms like Storefoundry.
Mr. James Asare-Adjei, President of the Association of Ghana Industries (AGI) followed after with a welcome speech to guests. He also stressed on the importance of businesses using technology to increase sales and business connections.
After the brief speeches, the executives made their way to cut the ribbon for the new office to be opened.
This beautifully dressed Ghanaian 'princess' led the way for the executives. Her confidence in carrying the scissors on a pillow was etheral!

As the ribbon was cut there was almost a mad dash into the room by journalists as they tried capturing the moment. Talk about first on the scene.
Displays of the MiFi's were placed succinctly around the new office with attendants standing at each console ready to attend to guests. Mr. Praveen took the AGI President round each and allowed the attendants to explain their functions and features.
Some guests interacted with the Busy officers on some products displayed.
The new office still has Internet cafe services in addition to the the 4G products on sale.
The waiting area to get attended to is simplistic in design and function and one can only hope the queue management will be automated.
Internet access in Ghana although growing is not in the hands of many. This is what Busy is trying to change by making it not only accessible but affordable. Their price offerings for MiFi are unbeatable at the moment with unlimited freebies which comes with different packages.
Busy is still located on the same premises as its previous brand (Busy Internet) towards Circle on the RingRoad Central road.
