The AI Opportunity for Africa
In this short talk, I present the state-of-the-art research findings on the impact of generative AI on worker productivity. Unlike previous ICT innovations, the current versions of large language models seem to benefit younger, less productive workers the most.

Jacques Nyilinkindi: Objectivity's software developers serve global clients from Rwanda
Просмотров 888Год назад
Software development is among the most complex and best-paying jobs that can be offshored. This is what put the Indian IT-enabled Services sector on the global map. Yet a worldwide talent shortage still exists. As ever more young Africans now enter digital labour markets, ever more young software developers become available to the world. In this conversation, I speak with Objectivity's Jacques ...

Global Business Services (GBS) companies come in many shapes. Deriv is an online brokerage firm that turned Kigali, Rwanda, into one of its global delivery locations. I spoke with Godfrey Zveynika, the Country Manager, about Kigali as Deriv's decision for its Africa office, about Rwanda as a possible destination for other GBS firms, about Kigali's eco-system of digital services exporters, and a...

Are you a Rwandan graduate, looking to start your career in IT services? Are you a Global Business Services firm, looking for a new delivery location? Are you a government official, seeking to facilitate a digital services export cluster in your country? Are you an international development partner, hoping to support future-oriented job creation in an African metropolis? If you ticked yes on an...

Firms interested in coming to Rwanda to export IT-enabled services, or firms interested in importing digital services through the internet from Rwanda might find this conversation interesting. In it, I speak with Vivens Uwizeyimana, founder and CEO of Umura...
Hassan Tha Kreator: filmmaking in Nigeria and Rwanda
Просмотров 193Год назад
Across the world, many people's dream job is located somewhere in the creative economy. Making films and creating video content has become much more accessible over the past few years, and as the digital realm brings the world closer together, collaborations across borders can emerge in creative fields that were hitherto limited by geography. In our conversation, Hassan Tha Kreator tells me abo...

The next problem will be to figure out how to manage the local workforce. What are the labor laws, customs, and skill levels in that country? PesaChoice is a human resources management platform that seeks to help incoming ...
Oriane Ruzibiza: Education First, and training Rwanda's digital services exporters
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.Год назад
When Global Business Services (GBS) firms choose new delivery locations, they look for stable governance, conducive regulations, reliable infrastructure, and workers with the right skills. Rwanda already tops Africa’s charts on governance, regulations, and infrastructure. And the Government has now begun an initiative with international development partners to train a large pool of GBS workers....

Просмотров 1,2 тыс.Год назад
Africa is full of young people who see the internet as their ticket to a better life. Adewale Yusuf, a Nigerian tech entrepreneur, saw this continent-wide drive as an opportunity to connect African workers, mainly programmers, with global clients, mainly tech companies - all remotely. For this, he built TalentQL, a platform that acts as a wormhole - transporting African coders into the borderle...

Great work Joseph 👏
Very interesting interview. I am looking forward to joining AmaliTech after uni this year. Thank you Mr. Hecker for the opportunity. I hope to see you in person on day.
Beautiful conversation. I echo Martin's observation in Ghana, that the Cv's of graduates are full of many courses done to try and increase their chances to land a good job, yet this is so much time and effort wasted. It's the same here in Kenya, infact my very own experience. We have so much potential but the opportunities are just not there.
One of the best interviews I've watched in the whole year
Wonderful conversation.
Amazing. Learnt a lot. Keep up the fire 🔥 lit in #Africa
