EDGEUNO have to be technical . They can be health or education . We love education specifically , and anything to do with it is going to be a priority for us ,” commented Akcin , who added that investing in Fintech will allow them to diversify and grow their portfolio .
Talking of investments , EdgeUno is also in the process of trying to finalise a funding round of its own , which Akcin says should be closed in less than twelve to eighteen months ’ time . In addition , there will be three or four new edge data centres focused on connectivity . According to Ackcin , these will be started and finished in a relatively short period of time due to the fact they will be prefabricated . “ It ’ s just a matter of putting them on a ship and bringing them to Colombia or Chile or Peru .”
Additional company purchases are also on the cards for the future . Commenting on these , Akcin said : “ You can definitely expect to see EdgeUno acquire more companies . We are looking at three or four different types of businesses , and I believe that you will also see EdgeUno establishing new partnerships , too .”
