An additional development was the more interactive Learn Setswana and Learn Kalanga apps. Intellegere Media launched the BW Lingos project at Botswana Innovation Hub’s First Steps Venture Centre on July 24, 2017.

“We have invested over BWP20 million worth of resources in man hours developing, coding, recording, testing, researching, marketing and so on of the BW Lingos and related mobile apps. We have made learning about our own culture much easier for the modern generation.

Today’s launch is part of taking the BW Lingos apps to the next stage, first by celebrating our achievements, then highlighting developments. We are proud to say through our engagement with the German overseas volunteers group we have since developed a German to Setswana version of the Learn Setswana app.,” said Itumeleng Garebatshabe, Intellegere Holdings founder and CEO.

Intellegere Media worked with Botswana apps developers; academics such as Dr Jeff Ramsay and Professor Lydia Saleshando; mother tongue narrators in Setswana, iKalanga and seKgalagadi; field test partners such as the Madikwe Rural Development Program and its batch of German overseas volunteers; all in a quest to package, preserve and share Botswana heritage.
