Adebayo Adedeji, Chief Executive Officer at Wakanow, an online travel booking company, believes the mobility sector in Africa needs more attention.
Adedeji shared this view at the Africa Technology Expo (ATE) on Friday, where industry professionals and stakeholders gathered at the National Theatre in Iganmu, Lagos, to discuss the progress of technology on the African continent.
The event, founded by Nnaemeka Clinton, chief executive officer, Spark, outlined how participants in the tech sector could keep building in Africa to drive growth.
In a panel session titled, “Is there an African future with Smart Cities? ‘Unlikely,’ Says Developers”, Andrew Cary, Co-founder and chief executive officer , SNAAP Transportation, spoke about what breaks when mobility fails.
“What breaks first subtly is [the] quality of life,” Cary stated.
