Data operator Wingu Group has announced the opening of the TO7 Technology Park, aimed at positioning Djibouti as an economic leader in East Africa. The opening ceremony was attended by His Excellency, President Ismail Omar Guelleg of Djibouti, state ministers, ambassadors, and other prominent political guests.
The park features a Tier 3 carrier-neutral data center, a cable landing station that facilitates international data transfers, and an innovation center. The Tier 3 data center offers 99.982% uptime, ensuring unmatched reliability.

The innovation center fosters a thriving ecosystem for workspaces and entrepreneurship, helping to create significant employment opportunities. It will attract more foreign investors and, by developing technical skills, will accelerate both economic and technological growth.
As a result, sectors such as education, business, and healthcare will see long-term development in the country.
