TORONTO, Sept. 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clear Blue Technologies International Inc. (TSXV: CBLU) (FRANKFURT: OYA), the Smart Off-Grid™ Company, announces that CEO Miriam Tuerk will host and present on the AI/Analytics panel at the upcoming TowerXchange Meetup Africa 2024 conference. The conference is scheduled for September 10 and 11 in Nairobi, Kenya.

Panel discussion to focus on tangible improvements digital infrastructure owners are generating from the application of better monitoring, analytics, automation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) /Machine Learning (ML).

“With over 50% of Africa lacking mobile connectivity, tower companies have a major role to close the continent’s infrastructure gap,” said Ms. Tuerk. “Artificial Intelligence and predictive analytics is a powerful enabler to obtain better performance from infrastructure, accelerating Africa’s digital, social and economic development. Clear Blue has been at the forefront of these solutions and offers proven, cost effective, environmentally friendly, and easily deployable Smart Power services and solutions to help make this leap in infrastructure. I look forward to exchanging knowledge with government representatives, tower executives, and other stakeholders at TowerXchange Meetup Africa 2024.”
