As PROMOTE 2026 comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on what has been an incredible experience for Motowa.
Over the past few days, we have had the opportunity to engage with hundreds of visitors, introducing them to Motowa and discussing our vision for transforming mobility. Many of the questions we received centred around security, trust, user verification, and our roadmap to launch, topics that reaffirmed the importance of building transportation solutions that people can rely on.
Beyond our stand, I had the privilege of attending the Transport and Logistics Conferences at the EU-Cameroon Business Forum held at the Eurovillage Pavilion. The discussions highlighted the critical role innovation and digital platforms can play in addressing mobility and logistics challenges across Cameroon and Africa.
PROMOTE also created opportunities to connect with remarkable individuals and institutions. We were honoured to welcome visits from the German Ambassador to Cameroon, officials from ANTIC, the leadership of NFC Bank, representatives of the U.S. Embassy Public Diplomacy Team, members of Rebase Academy, and Silicon Mountain. I also had the opportunity to meet with the British High Commissioner in Yaounde and exchange ideas on innovation, entrepreneurship, and technology-driven solutions.
One of the biggest highlights was meeting entrepreneurs, business leaders, vehicle fleet operators, and organizations that expressed genuine interest in working with Motowa. These conversations opened doors to potential partnerships in mobility, vehicle rentals, technology, and business development, reinforcing the need for smarter transportation solutions in our market.
Visiting other stands was equally inspiring. It was a great opportunity to learn from fellow innovators, discover new solutions, and build meaningful connections across different sectors. And yes, I even walked away with a 16GB USB stick after winning a quiz at the Swiss Embassy stand! 😊
Most importantly, PROMOTE gave us the opportunity to listen. We gained valuable feedback, onboarded new users, initiated promising partnerships, and strengthened our understanding of what travellers expect from a modern mobility platform.
A huge thank you to everyone who visited the Motowa stand, shared feedback, challenged our assumptions, and encouraged us along the way. Special thanks to Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH and the organisers of Salon de PROMOTE 2026 for creating a platform where innovation, business, and collaboration can thrive.
The journey continues, and we're excited for what lies ahead.
