African has grasped the Fourth Industrial Revolution, according to African Development Bank report, but its role globally could be even bigger

November 13, 2019--A report compiled by the African Development Bank reveals a continent that is embracing the brave new world of the Fourth Industrial Revolution but needs to improve access to finance, skills and inclusive growth.

It found significant uptake already in Africa of the Internet of Things-a market that could be worth as much as $12.6bn by 2021-and strong investment growth in new technology-led areas of AI, Big Data Analytics, blockchain, additive manufacturing and drones. This is not surprising given, as the report highlights, the broad and transformative effect these new technologies can have across all sectors from agriculture to manufacturing, and from health to education and government.
