Forward Multimedia in the Media

A bit of news about Forward Multimedia in the news— in a good way I hasten to add— an article in the business section of this week’s Trinidad Guardian newspaper (April 2nd, 2013). The article was on E-Commerce in Trinidad & Tobago (I know, a no-brainer to talk to me first right?) and my views on local e-commerce were reported.

I was expecting the article however, as I did get a call from the writer a little over a week ago asking my opinion. The writer had read my articles and was interested in the new payment gateway I was promoting with First Atlantic Commerce (FAC). I was a little disappointed that FAC wasn’t mentioned by name at all, instead mentioning only Scotiabank’s involvement.

Anyway, I did get many calls that day with website inquiries (that’s how I knew the article was published) and it was good for business. Apart from the bottom line, it does lend a certain credibility and enhances my stature in the industry. While I’m sure it will probably bring in some high profile clients, I don’t ever want to give the signal that I’m only about the big fishes with the big names, Forward Multimedia is fully down to earth and here for anyone in T&T who wants a website.

About the Author

I am Zaf Rahaman, owner of Forward Multimedia Ltd, a Trinidad based digital agency now in our 13th year. Through my experience acquired on the ground since 2011, I’ve become known as one of the foremost authorities in E-Commerce, especially as it pertains to Trinidad & Tobago.

I began writing blog articles on various topics after observing the lack of online information about local E-Commerce. These articles quickly propelled the Forward Multimedia to the number one position on Google for all major industry keywords, a position consistently held since without challenge.

In 2018 I was an invited panelist in the annual Trinidad and Tobago Internet Governance Forum. Also in 2018 I was an invited speaker for the launch of the Virtual Caribbean DNS Entrepreneurship Center (VDECC) an initiative of ICANN- the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, the international body that that coordinates the Domain Name System (DNS) worldwide.

I was also a stakeholder consultant for the Ministry of Trade & Industry’s National E-Commerce Policy which was passed in December 2018, with many of my recommendations making it to the final policy.

Most of all, I love to write AND love to write on everything website and E-Commerce related to help business owners in Trinidad & Tobago get the most out of their online presence.

ALL articles and pages on my site are written by me, in my voice, from the ground up, and for you, from a Trini perspective, using local examples and applications.
