Jonathan Johannessen, the CEO of Flash International company, dedicated to offering technological services for the financial and educational sectors, was this Friday (28.05.21), received in an audience by the PCA of ZEE EP and AIPEX, António Henriques da Silva, and Executive Directors of ZEE EP.
At the ZEE, Jonathan visited the industrial units Kaheel Agriculture, agricultural machinery, and Nexim Technologies, mobile phones, having been surprised by the high technological level and industrial capacity of these units and also by the infrastructure of the Luanda-Bengo Special Economic Zone (ZEE).
“It is impressive to see the quality and organization of this zone, ready to receive industrial investments. I visited two factories, tractors and mobile phones. The last one is much more part of the project we intend to implement in Angola, linked to financial education. We will need thousands of tablets to distribute to teachers and students, and it's good to know that we can find these infrastructures locally,” said Jonathan.
To be noted Flash already has operations in other countries in Africa, namely in the Republic of Congo, DRC and Ivory Coast. The company employs more than 300 direct and 4,000 indirect workers.
Jonathan Johannesen came to Angola at the invitation of AIPEX, to explore investment opportunities in the country.
