International Cooperating Ministries (ICM) & Esperanza Hotspot (Pilot Phase 1)

International Cooperating Ministries works in 93 countries around the world to nurture Christians and assist in church growth worldwide.  For 33 years, ICM has provided unique digital solutions to provide the Bible, the Mini Bible College (a complete survey of the Bible), audio players, and other materials to churches. They come alongside indigenous ministries in developing countries and equip them with church projects and discipleship content. By equipping local churches with the tools they need, they facilitate the growth of healthy churches throughout entire nations.

Need: ICM was looking for additional support for their mobile hotspot pilot.  The hotspot serves as an intranet where learning material can be uploaded and then streamed on individuals’ digital devices and mobile projectors.  The hotspots and projectors are powered via solar energy.

Solution: MoveUp connected ICM with Esperanza, and 6 hotspot devices are being placed in communities where Esperanza works to test the effectiveness and viability of the digital solution.  The hotspots will not only contain all of ICM’s life-changing materials, but also all the content on Esperanza’s AEI Para Ti mobile application.  Individuals who cannot download a mobile application, or do not have a mobile phone will now have the ability to access that content, along with all of ICM’s content, through the mobile hotspots.  Each hotspot set includes the hotspot, solar panel, secure lock-box, mini projector, projector screen, and of course all of the actionable education that will transform communities.

The hotspots are rolling out in November of 2019.  Interested in more information? Contact us!
