    Let us GO 2 Addis the Gateway to Africa and Middle East

    Addis is celebrating its 125 anniversary!

    Empress Taitu and then Emperor Menelik II -the GREATEST! discovered this city of hot springs at the beginning of the last century.

    The Emperor himself being at the center of the Infrastructure development where he introduced the telephone, rail system and water 7 sewage system and the automobile.

    In effect Addis started with the advent of technology transfer to the African continent.

    The challenge remains in terms of new technologies transfer such as ICT and SMN as well as well as banking and hotel amenities. However, the rapid infrastructure development and the presence of a strong diplomatic community and classical hospitality of the people is a great attraction.

    Lucy- the oldest human-ape remain, active volcano sites in the Rift Valley System,

    Diverse and exotic plant and wild life as well as the over 120 nations and nationalities culture, dietary diversity and the ever increasing business opportunities makes a visit to Addis, way above the tourism venture it is the business and investment opportunities that is really attractive.

    Addis is the Gate way to Africa and Middle East- Let us GO in 2012!
