Thulasizwe Mavuso is a young entrepreneur who founded the IT Cloud services company Solvyng in 2020. Mavuso started the company after identifying an opportunity to provide businesses faced with the challenge of having to adapt to a technologically driven operating environment.

“We enable businesses to move from legacy ways of doing things into a digital world where they are able to have more business agility, reaching their bottom line quicker, while saving cost and delivering more value to their customers. Thus, producing technological solutions for customers that allow them to solve their business, processes, and people challenges.”

He was raised by his grandmother in KwaZulu-Natal, never exposed to computers until he was in high school and realized his passion, which led him to pursue a career in the IT sector. His upbringing put him in a position where he had to solve different types of problems which would serve him later in life as it drove him to become a top achiever and a leader in the spaces he occupied.

He managed a team that delivered technology solutions to various banks during his employment. Mavuso then decided to become an entrepreneur after realizing that his passion was to empower and uplift young individuals such as himself and establish highly functional teams driven by a well-articulated vision.

“I wanted to create a world-class technology company that puts young black people at the forefront of innovation and technological advancement, which will be a vehicle for them to realize their full potential.”

Through his leadership, Solvyng became an Amazon Web Services advanced tier partner and a leading provider of IT Cloud services predominantly in the banking sector. His focus on innovation and customer satisfaction has earned him a reputation as a trusted partner and advisor to his clients.

The digitization of the world has placed a spotlight on companies such as Solvyng. Understanding how technology can be utilized to solve problems, especially in developing nations has become an invaluable skill. These technological advancements accelerate the adoption and delivery of key resources and information.

“We were in an initiative that focused on building smart clinics, that allowed for centralized patient data which would make patient information easily accessible no matter where the patient travels to. This will cut the time and cost delays related to a manual system and speed up access to medical help.”

Mavuso believes that the application of these technologies has endless possibilities and is advantageous as they cut across different sectors. This allows businesses to optimize their costs and perform better as they become more agile in delivering products and services that create more value for their customers.

METABORA SINGAPORE announces BORA 3.0 update plan

Published

on

  • In May, the BORA 3.0 Mainnet Update is scheduled for launch
  • Withdrawal of Existing Inflation Plan and Transition to Deflationary Tokenomics with Gas Fee Burning Mechanism Announced

SINGAPORE, April 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — METABORA SINGAPORE (Representative Gyehan Song) announced its plan to update BORA 3.0 mainnet and released a whitepaper on the BORA PORTAL on the April 29th.

Following the decision made at the 5th BORA Governance Council (GC) General Assembly held in Pangyo, Seongnam City, Gyeonggi Province on the 25th to update BORA 3.0, an evolved version of BORA’s services and ecosystem will be unveiled at the end of May.

BORA 3.0 includes enhancements to the existing BORA token utility to align with the global release, user expansion of the onboarding line-up, scheduled for the second half of 2024, improvements to accelerate the expansion of the BORA ecosystem.

The existing dual-token structure, comprising tBORA and bGAS, will be unified and converted into the BORA Mainnet token. Additionally, to activate the BORA chain, a token gas fee policy will be implemented. However, gas fees will be determined dynamically based on chain traffic conditions.

Moreover, BORA tokenomics will undergo significant revamping. In BORA 3.0, the previously proposed inflation plan is to be revised, and a “Dynamic Token Burning Model” that burns a certain percentage of BORA paid as gas fees on the BORA Mainnet will be implemented instead. The initial burning rate of the gas fee burning mechanism has been set at 50% through the approval process of the GC. Through this, BORA is ultimately set to transition into a deflationary tokenomics model.

Furthermore, to expand the BORA ecosystem into the sports and entertainment content areas in the global market, new onboarding contents will be introduced sequentially. These include a global IP-based baseball simulation game and “Birdie Squad 2024,” which adds live KLPGA broadcasting functionality.

Lim Young-Jun, CBO of METABORA SINGAPORE, stated, “We have undertaken extensive improvement efforts in various aspects such as tokenomics, token structure, and portal systems to enable BORA 2.0 to evolve into a more advanced service,”. He added, “In 2024, along with BORA 3.0, we will evolve the BORA ecosystem through the onboarding of various entertainment contents such as games and sports.”

Meanwhile, METABORA SINGAPORE is expanding cross-chains with various global platforms such as Polygon, Near Protocol, Ethereum, and Binance Chain to expand the global ecosystem of BORA and is preparing for a variety of content services beyond games.

Detailed information about BORA 3.0 Mainnet update is available on the BORA Portal website.
