<u></u> <u></u></p><div><div><div><div><p>Dear listers,<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p>
(En francais plus bas!)<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p>I attended the TransformAfrica Summit which is closing down in a few minutes. The theme is telling : The Future of Africa delivered..Today!<br>
<br>There are a few takeaways we could share, but you may acces the SMART Africa Manifesto at<br><br><a href="http://www.transformafrica2013.org/documents/" target="_blank">http://www.transformafrica2013.org/documents/</a><u></u><u></u></p>
</div><div><p>Manifesto is about taking action in order to connect, innovate and transform Africa.<br clear="all"><u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p>
<u></u> <u></u></p></div><p>While this summit, attended by 7 African heads of States an many high powered authorities, it has been somehow dominated by the massive presence of the private sector in panels and the nice exhibitions. Youth has also been at the centre of Transform Africa with workshops on digital entrepreneurship (Entrepreneurship Web 3.OS) and iHubs.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div><p>The other major take away is that TransformAfrica has been organized by Rwanda, a country that is not just writing policies and strategies, but is just executing them. And its shows right at the airport and all the way to the launch of the Rwandapedia (<a href="http://www.rwandapedia.rw/" target="_blank">www.rwandapedia.rw</a>) and the commissioning of the 4G. So, leadership matters on African journey to the digital economy.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div><div><p><br>Pierre<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p>=============================================================<u></u><u></u></p>
</div><div><p>Francais<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p>J'ai assiste au Sommet TransformAfrica qui va fermer ses portes dans quelques minutes. Le theme : L'avenir de l'Afrique rendue possible..Aujourd'hui. Tout un programme!<u></u><u></u></p>
</div><div><p>Beaucoup de choses sont a retenir de ce sommet et principalement le manifeste du SMART Africa. Le texte en Anglais et francais est accessible au <br>
<br><a href="http://www.transformafrica2013.org/documents/" target="_blank">http://www.transformafrica2013.org/documents/</a><u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p>
Le Sommet a connu la participation de 7 Chefs d'etats, des plus hautes autorites africaines, mais surtout la presence du secteur prive international, regional et local..Les jeunes y etaient massivement representes dans les ateliers consacres a l'entreprenariat des jeunes..Au total, plus de 2000 participants au sommet.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div><div><p>L'autre chose importante a retenir est que le sommet a ete organise par le Rwanda, un pays qui ne se contente point de faire des etudes et strategies, mais de les mettre en oeuvre! Et cela se voit..depuis l'aeroport jusqu'au lancement du projet Rwandapedia (<a href="http://www.rwandapedia.rw/" target="_blank">www.rwandapedia.rw</a>) a l'hotel Mille collines.<br>
<br>Assurement, le leadership compte sur la voie d'acces de l' l'Afrique a l'economie du numerique.<u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p><u></u> <u></u></p></div><p>
