The organizers would like to thank the participants for their popular participation, including representatives of Agency of telecommunications regulatory and tax authorities of Côte d'Ivoire, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Mali, Niger and Togo.
For the first workshop of its kind in West Africa, GVG and SGS decided to invite the two regulatory agencies telecoms and tax administrations in order to gain a better understanding of their common challenges, including the control and protection of revenue of the telecoms sector. More specific to each authority issues were also addressed in detail, such as the quality of the monitoring tools, telecommunications fraud management service, new regulatory tools in the context of IP convergence and new electronic tax systems.
Many of the technological tools submitted by GVG and SGS have been also demonstrated to enable participants to assess their potential and effectiveness.
According to Mr. François Dugué, Senior VP at GVG and one of the main organizers of the workshop and the presenters: "telecommunications are a key Africa growth, strong in some respects and vulnerable sector in other countries, particularly in the context of the convergence IP. These workshops give us an excellent opportunity to take stock of the latest improvements in governance technologies. GVG actively participates in the ITU study groups and our company is also sponsoring major events like the African Telecom People. These events provide interesting exchanges between the various stakeholders in the industry, often on issues of general interest. "Our workshops are directed specifically at regulators and address in detail the practical issues that affect them in particular".
SGS devotes much of its resources and expertise unique to the world of aid and African Governments maximize their governance. Concerning the telecommunications sector, SGS concluded an exclusive partnership with GVG in 2011, which has led to the implementation of advanced solutions for the regulation of the sector in Rwanda and Tanzania.
