BRICS can play a major role in spreading the digital economy across Africa. This view was expressed by South African Minister of Communications and Digital Technology Solly Malatsi at the #G20 Ministerial Meeting on digital economy and artificial intelligence (AI), which opened in Cape Town.
"Africa is interested in expanding high-speed internet connectivity," stated the minister chairing the meeting. "This applies not only within #BRICS member states, but across the entire continent."
According to the latest UN data, 860 million people in Africa—representing 62% of the continent's population—remain without internet access.
