(Barbados Nation) The Barbados Entrepreneurship Foundation’s (BEF) drive to have free islandwide Wi-Fi by November 11, 2011 is gaining momentum.
According to the BEF’s chief executive officer Damian McKinney, businesses which had been lukewarm about “unlocking the padlock” on their wireless service were now getting on board.
Speaking yesterday during a Press conference at the Woodland Plantation, St George office of his company, McKinney Rogers International, he said there was now a greater spread of wireless hotspots across the island.
The BEF’s business facilitation champion Melanie Jones said the group was working to bring several more businesses on board, including rum shops.
