Experts in the tech ecosystem have called for more investment in tech-hubs to create more employment opportunities and foster economic growth.

The experts also said that it is imperative for tech-hubs to be upgraded to tertiary institutions so as to meet up with demand as the world continues to evolve, increasing the need for tech talents.

“Europe has 6.6 million developers, America has 6 million and these numbers are short of what is needed and Africa has 700,000, which is way below demand. Adams also said that the firm is committed to empowering talents with adequate soft and hard skills in tech to meet world standards coupled with solving the dipping unemployment rate in Africa.

“Nigeria is largely dependent on trade and services which sits on the back of technology, if you invest in people that will drive this, then the ripple effect will be enormous,” he said.
