📢 Connectivity for Africa: Building New Pathways for Growth 🌍 Attending the #SmartphoneForAfrica Summit was a powerful reminder of how digital inclusion can transform lives and economies across the continent. Hearing from leaders like Shikoh Gitau Qhala, Bruce Onchere Safaricom PLC, Adam Lane Huawei, Sebastien C. KaiOS Technologies, Inc., Nkundwe Mwasaga ICT_Commission_Tanzania and seeing engagement from Zachary Kazzaz Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation highlighted the importance of addressing consumer needs, streamlining policies, and building partnerships to drive real change. These discussions resonate deeply with the work we’re doing at Eastrise Group. Emerging markets like #Kenya are leading the way in innovation and entrepreneurship, but businesses still face significant barriers when it comes to accessing the financial pathways they need to scale and thrive. To unlock their full potential, we must deepen cooperation, foster cross-regional partnerships, and reimagine how we support growth in these regions. Connectivity isn’t just about #technology—it’s about creating opportunities, building resilience, and empowering entrepreneurs to transform their communities. #SmartphoneForAfrica #SFA2024 #Collaboration #EmergingMarkets #AfricaInvestement
