Writing this from Dubai traffic at 8 PM felt like a typical Monday night in Lagos.
After a thrilling first day at GITEX, one of the world’s largest tech conferences, returning to the hotel was a relief knowing even the ‘City of Gold’ has its traffic challenges.
Enough about movement musings.
GITEX, one of the world’s largest tech conferences, was spread across multiple locations in Dubai, teeming with a diverse crowd of exhibitors, tech enthusiasts, policymakers, and investors from various regions.
Major tech companies showcased AI technology, robotics, and cloud computing, while innovative products like an AI-powered cloning machine and a self-checkout device without scanning were also featured.
Exciting panel discussions addressed challenges in tech ecosystems, with a focus on funding, risk aversion among investors, and regulatory obstacles affecting startup growth.
Europe and Africa are optimistic about overcoming these challenges and fostering tech innovation.
I am eagerly anticipating today’s event lineup!
See you later!
