Econet Wireless Zimbabwe will partner Ericsson to launch NuVu, a Video-on-Demand (VOD) platform in Zimbabwe.

The service would become the latest entrant into the increasingly popular, highly-competitive sector, and the first play into video by telecommunications big shot Econet.

According to technology news and blogging site TechZim, plans to launch NuVu are at an advanced stage.

The Swedish telecommunication giant Ericsson announced late last year that it would be diving headlong into the realm of content, quite a departure for a company known for building infrastructure.
