  • Emerging Technology and what that means for Africa

    Emerging Technology and what that means for Africa
    Feb 7 2023
    The question is, does society at large know how to adapt?

    In this episode, Marisa interviews economist analyst Sam Rolland who holds the position of Director for Sub-Saharan Africa at the Economist Intelligence Corporate Network. Their insightful conversation unpacks how businesses can cooperate with emerging technologies, and build an understanding of what that means for Africa.

    The world has become an extremely disruptive place while also an increasingly globalized one. Using cloud technology, South African firms can become globally competitive by increasing innovation and reducing margins that ultimately benefit our economy.
