When it came to finding a location for Onja’s base, understanding how internet speed varied was a cornerstone of the decision-making process. Thanks to the insights provided by Ookla for Good data, the entire Onja team now operates from Mahanoro, a beach town on the east coast of Madagascar.
Having a good internet connection is essential to Onja’s mission. Our developers need reliable internet not only to learn and practice coding during our training program, but they also need it when they begin working remotely with international companies.
When Onja was considering where to set up our first base in Madagascar, Ookla helped us find a spot with great internet to support the learning and professional growth of our developers.
