"“My dream is to see every African connected and to have regulations and policies that are progressive, to enable innovation and not hamper it. I want to enable small and medium-size businesses by making it easier for them to connect to their customers and even see them go beyond connectivity through open application programming interfaces, digital marketplaces, easy-to-consume clouds and AI-enabled business tools. Ultimately, we need to increase productivity and the economic outcomes for Africa, improve education outcomes and reduce unemployment and the under-employment of our youth."
