A small group of self-funded African immigrant communities from Liberia and Sierra Leone who reside in Minnesota have created the company MyCountry MyWorld which is set to launch in May MY!, an app “for Africans by Africans” that offers possibilities in worldwide exploration, giving users the opportunity to bring their country and world to each other.
“Having developed the app over a period of two years, with a series of tests; we are now confident that the app is ready to be released to the world,” Samuel Zean Jr, Co-founder, MY!
“Most Africans complain about how African nations are portrayed by Western countries in both traditional and digital media. The MY! app is developed by Africans for Africans to help change this narrative. This way, everyone has the opportunity to tell their story in their own way.” Samuel Zean Jr, Co-founder, MY!
MY! presents a platform where these users, especially from developing economies, can tell their story in their own way and own the platform.
Globally, the number of Internet users is growing at an annual rate of over 7½ percent, but annual growth is much higher in many developing economies.
The application allows users to represent their country by showcasing a country’s unique attractions, features, wildlife, culture, cuisine, art, skills, talent, stories, business buzz, history and more
MY! is an inclusive social media platform that appeals to all age groups. The app provides an unparalleled user experience, engagement, interaction and entertainment. The application’s interface is user-friendly and easy to navigate. It allows users to share content effortlessly, providing feedback and updating a post status. It simplifies collaboration between users and gives them full visibility into the content created.
The app is intended to take on both Facebook and Instagram. “In a time of so much turmoil, it brings hope to many to see this diverse group of people come together to create something special for the world.” Adam Borgerding, VP of Operations, MY!
In addition, the app gives users the opportunity to retain authentication rights to their work. MY! allows you to maximize your creativity and rewards you for each uploaded post shared. The app allows users to represent their country by showcasing a country’s unique attraction sites, features, wildlife, culture, cuisine, art, skills, talent, stories, business buzz, history and more.
