Growth, as the source summarises it
Poa Internet may be growing as it is mentioned in the context of receiving benefits from significant funding. The company is one of two local startups set to benefit from a substantial investment of Sh4.71 billion from the European Investment Bank (EIB), which indicates an influx of capital that could support expansion and development. Additionally, Poa Internet is highlighted in articles discussing its internet coverage, router, packages, and setup process, suggesting an active engagement in market operations and service provision. The presence of detailed guides on setting up Poa Internet's services implies that the company is operational and potentially expanding its customer base.
