AfricaCom 2016
Extruct Exhibition was proud to have been a trusted service provider for the 2016 AfricaCom exhibition show which took place at the renowned CTICC from 14-17 November in Cape Town.
This year AfricaCom was focussed on economic development and social empowerment through digital connectivity. As a result Extruct Exhibition was honoured to be able to facilitate the customized exhibition stands of some of the following distinguished attendees.
China Comservice International (CCSI) is the largest telecommunication construction company in China. They are the leading service providers in telecommunication infrastructure services, business process outsourcing services and application, content and other services. They are capable of servicing the largest fixed and mobile networks in the world by offering services ranging from network infrastructure, design and construction, to consulting services such as management facilitation, maintenance, IT applications and internet services.
Consequently Extruct Exhibition created and constructed their customized exhibition stand at AfricaCom 2016 where CCSI shared their vision: “China-Africa Partnership Program in Trans-Africa Information Super Highway”. Their program at the biggest technology exhibition in Africa showcased how they endeavour to help more African countries connect digitally. To this end, CCSI has already built up more than 25000km of fibre-optic backbone network across the African continent.
Most relevant to note is that CCSI is a multi-national company with over 40 subsidiaries in 60 countries across the globe. Furthermore, their multi customer base includes telecom operators, equipment vendors, corporations and governments. CSI has a strong financial backbone due to being listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange and owning shares in China Telecom, China Mobile and China Unicom.
