Dr. Belete Mola, State Minister of Innovation and Technology, stressed that Africa's future path depends on knowledge and collaboration. He described the forum as more than discussion, serving as a practical platform to drive Africa's transformation.
Ethiopia has gained recognition from united governments for its efforts in population management and health improvements, according to the minister. These actions affirm technology's potential to enhance lives and strengthen societies.
As part of Digital Ethiopia 2030 vision, the country is shifting from a traditional to a digital economy, acting as a hub for initiatives and research. Strong legal and institutional frameworks have been established to boost creative jobs and safeguard citizens' rights, he noted.
