The chairman of the House Committee on Innovation, Science, and Technology at the Osun State House of Assembly, Adewumi Adeyemi, has assured that his committee will give full support to public-private partnership (PPP) for digital economic growth in the state.
He gave the assurance while speaking as a guest speaker at Osun Digi Market Webinar 2.0 over the weekend.
The event themed “Public-Private Partnership, a Unique Collaboration Strategy in Growing Osun Digital Economy,” saw various stakeholders coming together to discuss strategies for enhancing the state’s technological landscape.
Adeyemi highlighted that such partnerships enable the pooling of expertise, funding, and technological infrastructure to create an environment conducive to sustainable digital development.
He emphasised that such collaborations could lead to the emergence of new startups, the expansion of existing businesses, and the overall enhancement of the state’s digital infrastructure.
“The digital economy is no longer just an option; it’s a necessity for any region aspiring to remain competitive in the modern world. Osun State has immense potential in this realm, and by fostering strong public-private partnerships, we can harness this potential for the benefit of our citizens.
“The digital economy is a cornerstone of modern societies, and Osun State is no exception. To fully harness its potential, we must embrace PPPs as a strategic tool for progress,” Adeyemi stated.
He also stressed the importance of establishing a regulatory framework that encourages innovation while safeguarding the interests of both parties involved.
