About this session
Key takeaways
- Africa and the fourth Industrial Revolution.
- Asia, like Africa, is a very diverse continent with diverse economies thus the development models of each of the countries are as well diverse but there are communalities. Africa needs to look at its economies and according to their competitive advantage, their resources (human, financial, natural), their priorities, develop the right economic model for its growth
- The outcome of any policy should be the focus of any authority however lacks in most African countries
- African nations must increase their production capacities as they have the lowest levels of economic productivity. Vietnam's industrial ratio changed as a result of investments in industrialization, modernization, infrastructure, energy and electricity availability, as well as education and training
