On education, the survey stated that education (21.1 per cent) is considered to be the sector most impacted by technology innovation in Africa over the last two years, which is more than financial services (18.3 per cent) and entertainment (15.1 per cent).
The Africa Innovation Impact Report highlighted job creation (51 per cent) as the biggest advantage of Africa’s growing digital economy, which is more than exposure of the younger population to technology (29.3 per cent), growing financial inclusion (12.4 per cent) and the potential to plug infrastructure gaps on the continent (7.1 per cent).
Commenting on the findings of the report, founder and managing director of Talking Drum Communications, Olugbeminiyi Idowu, said: “our aim with the report is to capture the impact of Africa’s emerging innovation narrative beyond anecdotes and hearsay, and contribute to the conversation about how we keep things moving forward.
“Based on the data we have gathered, the innovation coming out of Africa is not only changing the way people live and work, it is also changing the way people think, how they view themselves as Africans and driving a demand for more innovation. There is a growing appetite for these innovations, both from African users and global investors, and there is much to be excited about what the future holds.”
