To the question if the fate of Africa rests on the "tech-takers", I would say: no.
The African continent is not yet gone through all the necessary stages of development, so that technologies are central to its future emergence.
Take the case of the US, Europe and some Asian countries which are technological innovation poles.These regions of the world, are first passed by economic change in which they were investing heavily in key sectors such as education, health, transport, housing, tourism, trade, research...Before you can access advanced technologies.That appear as the ultimate phase of development of economies have reached their saturation cycle.
How do we explain then the craze of young African as well as, foreign investors in the place of this industry if not, by imitation?
It is very unlikely that Africa docks advanced technologies, if the basic needs of its people are not satisfied.
To date, Africa has more need to develop sectors such as energy and agriculture that can create thousands or millions of jobs for its young people (15- 25) mainly, unemployed or underemployed (grants our article on youth unemployment in Africa).She did not need to see the emergence of Amazon, Ebay, Alibaba Uber or the African all kinds ...Which are products or services to regions of the world that have achieved a certain standard of living.
Well, regarding our modest relative contribution to the question:The future of Africa it based on "tech-takers".
