Manual labor and routine competencies are being aggressively automated, requiring Mandela Centennial Leaders to close the digital gap
The shift from industrial to digital economies is requiring new skillsets and deeper understanding of innovation in business and technology
Innovative strategies for social transformation are required to tackle Africa’s widespread challenges such as unemployment, Aids/HIV, water & energy

THE CASE FOR CHANGE
