They salute the E-Gov’A event
En 2025, les investissements mondiaux dans l’IA devraient atteindre plus de 250 milliards de dollars, et d’ici 2032, le marché mondial pourrait dépasser les 1700 milliards de dollars. Cette dynamique témoigne de l’urgence pour chaque nation, chaque gouvernement de se positionner de manière stratégique, sous peine de subir des décisions et innovations venues d’ailleurs.
« Le Salon E-Gov’A se veut une réponse africaine concrète aux défis de modernisation de l’action publique. Il mettra en lumière non seulement les solutions numériques qui transforment déjà nos administrations africaines ou qui peuvent les transformer, mais aussi les défis et actions qui dessinent et dessineront l’Afrique digitale de demain. »
