Building sovereign digital infrastructure

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been strongly encouraged by the high level of interest in the ADAPT initiative and IOTA commitment to revolutionize trade on the African continent by establishing one shared, public digital infrastructure. Participating in the ADAPT launch in Johannesburg last month also gave me the chance to meet with many of our partners and potential partners in person, which I believe provides a solid foundation for a successful and meaningful long-term collaboration. What stayed with me most were the conversations – listening, debating, and reflecting on how we can truly unleash the potential of trade across Africa and beyond. In particular, I was inspired by our meeting with H.E. Secretary General Wamkele Mene of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Secretariat, who has taken the lead in the implementation of ADAPT. His personal commitment to overcoming the many obvious obstacles to the execution was clear from our conversation. What is really great is that actual implementation starts very soon. Please watch this video in which Sir Tony Blair from Tony Blair Institute for Global Change, H.E. Wamkele Mene, Dr Talkmore Chidede, Chido Munyati and I expand on the ADAPT initiative, the thinking behind it, and what it means for the future of trade in Africa.
