With the world’s youngest population, Africa holds immense potential to shape its future through innovation and technology. More than 60 percent of its people are under 25. Gaming is emerging as a powerful catalyst for digital inclusion, providing African youth with critical access to technology and the skills needed to thrive in a fast-evolving digital economy.
