The community of Hebron is witnessing a wave of opportunity and empowerment, thanks to Net Nine Nine, South Africa’s leading Internet Service Provider (ISP) committed to bridging South Africa’s digital divide and creating jobs.
As part of its ongoing mission to create inclusive digital access, Net99 has invested in the training and development of local youth, equipping them with skills to participate in the company’s upcoming fibre rollout project set to go live before the end of November.
Over two day, 6-7 November 2025, Net Nine Nine conducted intensive training sessions aimed at empowering Hebron’s young people with both technical and sales knowledge, and they came in their numbers at the Bakwena ba Mogopa Tribal Home.
This initiative was designed not only to prepare them for employment but also to position them as active participants in the town’s growing digital economy.
UPSKILLING HEBRON YOUTH HITS RIGHT NERVE!
“Our goal has always been to create opportunities where we operate,” said Net Nine Nine Regional Manager Ronny Mofokeng.
“We don’t just bring fibre, we bring empowerment, jobs and upskill SMME’s. By training and hiring from the community, we ensure that Hebron grows with us.”
The training programme, conducted by Minky Msimango, Thapelo Masilo, Thobani Dlamini and Siya Gumede, focused on areas such as customer engagement, fibre network awareness, and digital literacy, laying a strong foundation for the new recruits to thrive in their roles.
“With the sales team now identified and ready to hit the ground running, Hebron is abuzz with anticipation for what this project will mean for its residents,” said Hebron king, Loth Fancy Masilo.
Local leaders have applauded the initiative, describing it as a turning point for the youth who have long faced challenges with unemployment and limited access to technology.
NET99 TO CHANGE LIVES OF BAKWENA BA MOGOPA!
The introduction of fast and reliable fibre internet is expected to transform homes, schools, and small businesses, enabling the community to connect, learn, and grow like never before.
For many in Hebron, the Net Nine Nine project represents more than just connectivity, it symbolises hope, empowerment, and progress.
As the fibre rollout nears to go live, the community stands ready to embrace a new digital era, driven by its own young people who now have both the skills and the opportunity to shape their future.
“It’s all systems go,” added Mofokeng.
“Our team is ready, our network is almost ready, and Hebron is ready for the future.”
With November fast approaching, the countdown to Hebron’s digital transformation has officially begun, and its young people are leading the charge.
