Despite being a small country, Lesotho has maintained a local ICT industry with some innovative IT applications. However, its tech development has lagged behind other Southern African nations. While mobile penetration is among the highest in the region, broadband penetration remains one of the lowest. This and other challenges in the ICT market are partly due to low competition.
