SA has always been at the top when it comes to technology in Africa. I once heard they are aiming for the moon with rocket projects.
Being a software developer myself, I can fully attest to the fact that, technology is the new way to wealth. It is a great news to wake up to, especially for the SA youths and startups in particular.
I hope the meeting held by the minister of small business development: Lindiwe Zulu and Stella Ndabeni Abraham's who is the minister of communications yield a great reward. That way, academies for coding and programming as well as co-working and co-creation spaces for the youth and start ups will be available and this development will in turn improve the country to a greater height.
See Rwanda, their penchant for technology has given them a new name. Some weeks ago they launched the first ever medical drone, so if countries like SA, Nigeria n etc can follow suit, then Africa will be a greater place soon..
