Great roadmap out today from @IFC_org Our CEO @RyanOGradyCEO points out - private sector can lead us to these destinations, BUT it takes cost effective financing & strong access to capital to roll out the infrastructure for #digital opps across #Africa.
The road that connects each city & country, which carries our goods to market, is just as vital as the digital infrastructure that is essential for #development across #Africa. Harmonized tariffs & regulations enable faster growth & #affordable access. #digitalinclusion
“I would argue that we need to harmonize regulatory developments particularly in the technology space because right now, it’s country by country approach, which means studying 54 regulatory regimes...why don’t we think about a borderless regulatory framework.” @RalphMupita,…
Great article @SemaforAfrica Yes, we need more undersea cables to Africa. We also need more cables running between African countries to increase interconnectivity. This builds redundancy, drives competition, & lowers operating costs. Access is just as vital as affordability.
