Emerging Technologies in Africa

About this book

Africa is a booming continent with incredible growth potential and is the second-largest continent in the world. The continent is home to immense potential and abundant resources. It is also the home to some of the youngest populations in the world. The continent is not just catching up with the world; it is propelling itself to the forefront of innovation. Africa is closely watched as the next big growth market.
Technologies impact every aspect of our modern society. African economies have been held back from their full potential, but the emerging technologies could help change that. The technologies have been gaining a lot of attention from businesses, investors, educators, and governments across Africa. They are having an influence on African lives, well-being, and resilience. They have come to be perceived as a groundbreaking method that can bypass the several systemic flaws affecting the continent.
This book explores the use of emerging technologies in Africa. These technologies include artificial intelligence, robotics, 3D printing, cloud computing, nanotechnology, Internet of things, blockchain, and drones. The book is organized into ten chapters that summarize these technologies and their adoption in African nations. It is a must read for those interested in the socio-economic development of Africa.
