Testimonials
«… I was delighted when I visited NOSI’s laboratories. I saw by the first time a system that will allow citizens of a country not to have to stand in queue in order to request documents or pay taxes (…)
innovation and the creativity are unquestionable values. We do live at a moment where the quality and the increase of citizens’ quality of life in a country are much higher from the simple idea that crosses their borders, than any petroleum, gold or diamond mine », Chairman for Microsoft Africa, Cheick Diarra
Testimonials
"Only few countries illustrate Africa’s potential (...) No other African country was able to succeed in all spheres of development as Cape Verde did, from good governance, transparency, responsibility and accountability of public powers to laws and a democracy that has managed to pull their people out of poverty, bringing these islands to the middle-income group of countries ".
“Good governance in Africa is possible. Look at Cape Verde!” United States Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton
“Cape Verde is, at the moment, in condition to be, in the short term, in top position in the African continent”. Linnar Viik, Estonia, specialist and e world reference in e-governance and information societyOctober 2009

“Africa, when its on the news in the European newspapers, it’s almost always for the wrong reasons: the war, corruption, extreme poverty (…) However, to who was present at the Cape Verde Embassy in Lisbon during the inauguration of the [Citizen’s] Portal – portondinosilha.cv – and now would like to visit, they will find a very different Africa.”Maria Manuel Leitão Marques, Former State Secretary for Administrative Reform – Portugal, January 2008

“Now in the twilight of my life, I experienced yesterday one of its most emotional moments on a visit to the NOSi facility and to its employees, at the behest of NOSi’s General Manager, Mr. Jorge Lopes. For the first time, even if briefly, I mingled with a fairly large group of young men and women who never knew the stigma of Colonial Domination – all of them born after the National Independence - showing the face of the “New Man” that we fought for and that we always dreamed of.I saw in their eyes and posture, their self-confidence, their confidence in the future and a high standard of civic solidarity, thoroughly imbued. If there were no other reasons, this would be enough for our most personal feelings to say: It was all worth it; the future is in good hands ”October 2009
Aristides Maria Pereira (1923 – 2011)First President of the Republic of Cape Verde (November 17, 1923 – September 22, 2011).
