The Port of Douala just locked in a deal with INNOVENDI to roll out hybrid 4G/5G networks and Smart Port tech across its facilities in Bonabéri. Cyrus NGO'O from PAD and Joel MONEFONG from INNOVENDI signed off on the partnership, which gets fully funded by the private side without government cash. The setup brings IoT gear, cloud systems, cybersecurity tools, and smart interfaces to speed up cargo handling and cut down wait times at one of the busiest ports in the Gulf of Guinea.
INNOVENDI pays entry fees plus ongoing charges to PAD under the public-private arrangement, and the project is supposed to create jobs while getting local small businesses involved. The port is betting on this upgrade to stay competitive and hit international logistics standards.
