On this episode of the TechTank Podcast, co-host Chinasa T. Okolo speaks with Landry Signé, a senior fellow in the Africa Growth Initiative at Brookings and author of the forthcoming book “Realizing Africa’s Potential: A Journey to Prosperity.” The conversation explores Africa’s emerging industries—ranging from health care to green economies—and the role of technology, innovation, and strategic leadership in driving sustainable development. They also delve into the critical roles of policymakers, international partnerships, and intraregional trade in unlocking Africa’s long-term prosperity.
