The African societal values will have impact on how digitalization across Africa is implemented, depending on the sector and region. To close this digital divide, ADL-iNNET recommend the creation of an ecosystem of Pan-African Digital Innovation Hubs, University digital forums and Secondary school digital forums as a key strategic priority to support transparency of viable tech exchanges, trade and services relevant for seamless delivery of socio-economic services and products between different African regions. These will enable the industry, governments and the startups grasp the benefits of digital opportunities. The Innovation Hubs could act as the one-stop-hub where government, and as well as businesses, SMEs, startups can have access to facilities to define & test technologies, access financing, advice, market intelligence and networking opportunities.
