A Journey Toward Economic Integration and Global Competitiveness
Africa's digital landscape is evolving at an unprecedented pace, driven by factors such as increased internet penetration, mobile connectivity, and a young, tech-savvy population. Initiatives like the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and the African Union's Agenda 2063 envision a transformed continent that is economically integrated, technologically advanced, and globally competitive.
