Based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, with offices in London and the United States, the vision of ModernETH is two-fold: to provide technological services in Ethiopia, as well ascapitalize on the cost-effective, off-shore delivery service model for clients based in the UK and U.S., including those of AMT.
Within the Ethiopian market, ModernETH is dedicated to providing informational, agricultural and import/export technology services. Using information technology solutions, ModernETH aims to help Ethiopian businesses operate at optimal performance by streamlining strategic technology planning, architecture, engineering and provisioning.

The launch of Ethiopia-based ModernETH marks
the realization of a lifelong dream for Manny and reflects the confidence of the investor group backing the effort.
