Cafona Inc. initiatives
Four initiatives, one conviction: technology should make daily life simpler, safer and more dignified, first where the gaps are widest. Cafona Inc., a federally incorporated Canadian company, carries them with the same standards of security, governance and accountability for results.
CafonaMed
Bringing health closer to everyone.
At night, on a Sunday or in an emergency, finding an open pharmacy, an available medicine or the right specialist can cost hours of travel and calls, just when every hour counts.
Today
- The nearest pharmacies and those on duty, by place and time, in Côte d’Ivoire.
- Voice search, for people who would rather speak than type.
- With pharmacies that accept it, ordering with a photo of the prescription, for pickup.
Where we are going
Also find an available medicine, a specialised health centre and a specialist doctor. And no more queues: during the hour spent in traffic, the medicine is prepared and waiting for its patient.
CafonaPay
Taking control of your money, for stronger families.
Many families manage their money day to day: costs arrive unannounced, savings wait, and support for family back home goes through slow, costly channels nobody can act on.
Today
- A personal money plan: balances, income, bills and debts, with a day-by-day forecast and a warning before a shortfall.
- What you can safely spend today, and a detailed analysis of every expense.
- Savings circles, fundraising, sending and requesting money, in several currencies including the CFA franc.
Where we are going
Full financial inclusion and, for the African diaspora in Canada, safe and traceable ways to support family without depending on a single transfer channel. A family in control of its money can save, then invest.
Africa-Soft
Supporting Africa’s technology leap.
Africa can cover in a few years ground others took decades to travel. That takes organizations finding the right solutions, and solution makers finding their customers.
Today
- Cafona Inc.’s services and CafonApp software, presented for Africa, with a request for proposal.
- A single place to express a transformation need and talk to an expert.
- Software publishers can submit their application; Cafona reviews it before publication.
Where we are going
Become the place where African organizations find, compare and adopt the solutions that fit them, whether they come from Cafona or from other makers.
OSONS
Daring, one small step at a time.
A big ambition can freeze you. A small step, repeated every day, ends up opening doors: one new word a day is 365 words after a year, enough to start a conversation.
Today
- Free tools, no account needed: prepare an interview with the STAR method, turn an intention into a dated next step.
- In the free member space: My Talents, the CV Workshop and a library of practical guides, in French and English.
- Peer-support circles to move forward together.
Where we are going
Make the first step a habit, in Canada and everywhere in the world.
