Digital Security System Development

Musty Digital and Security Systems is ensuring the booming digital content industry in Nigeria takes a growing share of this global sector by launching the Digital Content Knowledge network.

 

 

Musty Digital and Security Systems Chairman Egnr. Mustafa Bello, underlines the importance of this project: "Innovation is vital and we know that both large and small players in the market can gain significant benefits by working together to drive the boundaries of innovation forward; in particular, it's crucially important that we do all we can to help to commercialise the Intellectual Property being developed in the Nigerians universities. This network will focus on supporting the community of people who are active in digital content research and business development."

The digital content industry covers computer games, e-learning, e-publishing, software, web services, music, television, film, advertising and mobile content. A growing international market is there to be won by Nigerian businesses able to innovate. This is a highly competitive market in a very dynamic environment; that's why we want to put together partners in the country via the Network and perhaps internationally to develop advanced new products."

 

This process is already moving fast in the country. Companies are working on projects such as Internet Protocol TV, which is being explored for government and healthcare use, which may be the solution for next generation wireless Broadband, suitable for communications in rural areas and developing countries where wired infrastructure does not exist. Another development is in digital marketing where, for example, brand names can be inserted into a national TV programme or film to carry a localised advertising message.
