Eight months after its launch Sliide Airtime was named as Africa’s Best App at the prestigious AppsAfrica Innovation Awards. This accolade was swiftly followed by the Oscars of the global telecoms market (the GSMA’s Mobile World Congress) naming it as the ‘Most Innovative App in the World’.

CEO, co-founder and proud South African Corbyn Munnik then found himself on the front cover of Forbes Africa after being selected as one of the magazine’s 30 under 30 African entrepreneurs.

So how did an unknown start-up go from zero to hero in such a short space of time? The power of strategic media relations, an expertly crafted story and a pro-active award and speaking engagement programme executed by the team at TelecomsPR Africa.
