Julius Yego, Kenya’s London Olympics 2012 Javelin finalist personified the campaign named “Opportunity Changes with Orange”. Yego is known as the Youtube athlete after having used Youtube videos to learn how to be a great Javelin athlete. This, according to Orange CEO Mickael Ghossein is an example of unlimited opportunities of learning that internet access offers. See Julius in the Orange TVC.
In Ghossein’s words, “at Orange, we view Internet as a solution and mobile Internet as a solution in your hands. Yego is the first of many who will give us the privilege of telling their story of a dream that became a reality through mobile Internet.”
