Introducing AI@DCADigest: Africa’s Voice in the Age of Artificial Intelligence

🧠 Why This Matters

AI is reshaping economies and societies worldwide. Without active participation, Africa risks becoming a consumer, not a creator, of these technologies. AI@DCADigest provides the knowledge and platform for Africans to shape their own AI future.

DotConnectAfrica’s history of advancing digital transformation makes this initiative a natural step. We are committed to building an AI-ready Africa. Learn more about DotConnectAfrica here.
