Lancée en 2018, l’initiative Digital Africa a pour mission de renforcer la capacité des entrepreneurs numériques africains à concevoir et déployer à grande échelle des innovations de rupture au service de l’économie réelle. L’initiative rassemble un ensemble de partenaires de toutes nationalités engagés auprès des entrepreneurs numériques africains, au premier rang desquels se trouve l’Agence française de développement (AFD).
