As the biggest economy in Africa with
one of the largest youth populations in the world, Nigeria
is well-positioned to develop a strong digital economy. This
would have a transformational impact on the country. In
order to reap the benefits, Nigeria needs to focus on
accelerating improvements in five fundamental pillars of a
digital economy: digital infrastructure, digital platforms,
digital financial services, digital entrepreneurship and
digital skills. The Nigeria Digital Economy Diagnostic
report identifies key challenges and opportunities of
leveraging the digital economy for diversified and sustained
growth. It provides an assessment of the state of Nigeria’s
digital economy around the five foundational pillars. The
report also offers specific, actionable recommendations to
the government and private sector stakeholders to further
Nigeria’s development of each pillar. The report was
produced in the context of the Digital Economy (DE4A)
initiative, an African Union initiative supported by the
World Bank Group, which aims to digitally connect every
person, business, and government in Africa by 2030. |
