“The space economy is evolving rapidly, driven by lower costs, new technologies, and greater private-sector engagement. Africa intends to be a full participant in this growth, not only as a user of space capabilities, but also as a contributor to science, research, and global decision-making. For a continent with a young and increasingly connected population, this sector offers enormous potential. With the right support, our talent pool can develop the relevant expertise, and build businesses, and create real value for Africa.” President Kagame | International Space Summit.

25 years. 6 chapters. 1 belief. 25 years ago, I wrote my first lines of code as a software engineer at Samba Financial Group. From Samba to Microsoft, the National Digital Transformation Unit, Misk Foundation, Tadawul, and now the Digital Cooperation Organization, every chapter taught me something new. Technology evolved from desktops to cloud, from mobile-first to AI-first. But one thing never changed. Technology will keep changing, and that's exciting, but the real opportunity has never been the technology itself. It's what we choose to build, how we choose to use it, and whose lives we choose to improve. Here's to the next 25 years. #DigitalTransformation #Retrospective #DigitalProsperity4All

By 2050, our continent will have the largest, fastest-growing workforce in the world. There are many success stories about what our young people are doing on the continent with artificial intelligence. We have to invest in them. It will be a win-win for everyone. The bottom line, is that for A.I. to serve humanity as a whole, we must get it right in Africa and everywhere else.” President Kagame | #AIforGood Global Summit 2026
