Improved access to mobile internet harbours an estimated US$180 billion of additional output across Africa. Scaling private debt solutions develops national infrastructure as digital economies transform demography. EAAIF’s commitments have reduced high data costs and barriers to mobile telecommunications and data adoption, creating a more profound impact on the local economy.
PIDG’s support (through EAAIF) of IHS Towers and other pioneering telecom and digital infrastructure providers has helped expand operations across the continent, extending access to transformative digital services that will shape Africa’s fourth industrial revolution, boost digital skills and financial inclusion, creating new jobs, and democratising access to markets.
