Social business:
CityTaps’ vision is to bring running water to every urban home in the developing world. We are a social high-tech business based in Paris, with operations in Sub-Saharan Africa.
IoT and mobile payments:
We are building an internet-connected, prepaid water meter that uses mobile money for payments.
Totally worthwhile project:
Our connected meter helps poor families access running water in their homes, saving them time and money, and improving their health.
Tough technical problem:
Our technology includes both hardware and software components that need to seamlessly integrate together, from mobile phone to water meter.
Small but international: English is our working language.
