Wireless Africa Roadmap
| We had better pay attention to our future, after all it's where we spend the rest of our lives - Albert Einstein |
The road mapping process
- Get synergy on what our product offerings are
- Define “feature sets” of various versions of product offerings within 3 year horizon
- Define Development and Research milestones to contribute to these feature sets
- Define linkages between, research milestones, development milestones and product offering versions
- Define a set of tasks to reach each of the above milestones
- Define what we will be doing this year
The roadmap structure that will be followed looks as follows
Focus is on a 3 year roadmap
These will be done at another stage
- Skills development roadmap
- Business model development roadmap
- Devices roadmap
- Policy development roadmap
- 10 year foresighting exercise
