In this episode of the TechCentral podcast, TechCentral editor Duncan McLeod chats to Vox CEO Jacques to Toit about the company’s R550m investment plan, announced recently.

The money will be used mainly to expand subsidiary Frogfoot Networks’ fibre broadband footprint, but also to grow Vox’s salesforce and automate some of its backend processes.

In the podcast, McLeod asks Du Toit how Vox intends to deploy the money and solicits his views on the South African telecommunications market more broadly.

Listen to the podcast to hear why Du Toit believes the ADSL market will be dead within five years and why open-access fibre is the future.
