iColo Founder & CEO, Ranjith Cherickel shares the story of iColo and walks us through why markets that are perhaps less obvious, like Africa, are in fact very attractive opportunities for digital development and how to stay ahead of trends. Covering connecting the formerly denominated “dark continent”, we take a glimpse at standards and best practices that will allow it to flourish in full transparency, generating trust and attracting local, regional and international customers into Africa’s digital economy. We consider the challenge as well as the importance of the regulatory sphere and compliance with it in difference markets, and address the last hurdles to building a booming digital economy on the continent.
