Tech experts want more help from government leaders to catch up with other African countries. Cassava Technologies plans to build the first AI factory in Africa with partner NVIDIA. Company president Hardy Pemhiwa aims to add advanced computing abilities to African digital systems. The new factory will solve problems that held back tech growth across the continent. It will combine special computer chips with AI technology to create more space for local talent.
NVIDIA brings fast, energy-efficient computing power to ensure the factory runs well. Google and IFC Gateway Capital invested money in this project, showing they believe in African tech potential. Local expert Dr. Milton Murapa called this a model for Zimbabwe and the entire continent. He wants digital literacy programs, updated rules, and more startup funding. Dr. Shirleen Moyo said this move will help connect separate markets into one digital economy.
She believes the connection lets data services products move easily between countries. Businesses can grow operations without dealing with different rules in each place. Companies will save money, find new customers work together better. Pemhiwa thinks investing in digital systems today prepares Africa for future challenges. The path toward a digital Africa looks clearer than ever before.
