I attended the Bluechip Data And AI Summit hosted by Bluechip Technologies The Exclusive Fireside Chat titled "Africa's Digital Leapfrog: Using Data and AI to Unlock Growth Potential" with Olumide Soyombo and Abubakar Suleiman reminds me of what's coming and what we at Droomwork believe in. We are building the infrastructure that would export Africa's Technological workforce at scale. Africa would have be the youngest workforce by 2050, its not too early to build the infrastructure, train the talents and also export them to the world. Kazeem Tewogbade introduced Bluechip Data Platform (BDP). AI agents are coming but you need BDP to store the billions of data events coming from these agents. #Data #thebluechipdataandaisummit2024

I had the opportunity to return to GITEX GLOBAL Largest Tech & Startup Show in the World this year, and once again, it was an incredible experience! As a Data Analyst, it was inspiring to see how innovation continues to shape the future, especially in areas such as Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Machine Learning, and Cloud Computing. I was impressed by the solutions emerging to transform how we use data in our everyday lives. I also had the pleasure of visiting the WLA SaaS stand, and I want to give a special shout-out to the team for their warm welcome and for the innovative project they are developing! It’s always great to see companies dedicated to bringing impactful solutions to the market. Some of the highlights for me: * Discussions on the impact of AI on process automation and predictive analytics. * The importance of Big Data for real-time strategic decision-making. * How Cloud Computing technologies are enabling the efficient storage and processing of large volumes of data. These insights not only reaffirm how fast technology is advancing, but also how we, data professionals, are at the center of these transformations. Leaving this event with new ideas, tools, and networking connections is just the beginning. Now it’s time to apply what I’ve learned and continue exploring how these innovations can make a real impact on future projects. #Technology #Innovation #DataScience #BigData #MachineLearning #AI #CloudComputing #DataAnalysis #Gitex2024

The growing prominence of AI across diverse industries has prompted countries in the Middle East to make strategic investments in data centres.
