Africa has experienced strong economic growth over the past decade. Several factors are driving this success, including improving macroeconomic conditions, business reforms, a growing middle class and urbanization, and increasing trade and investment links with emerging economies like China and India. However, for growth to be sustainable, African countries will need to undergo economic transformation by moving labor and capital from low-productivity activities like agriculture and raw materials to higher productivity sectors like manufacturing and services. The document discusses frameworks for transformation and the policy enablers needed, including infrastructure, education and skills development.
The document discusses the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) and information and communication technology (ICT) development in sub-Saharan Africa. It argues that FDI and ICT development are codependent, as ICT development facilitates FDI through economic and political changes, while FDI also leads to further ICT development. Transnational corporations play a key role through international technology transfer. While some countries and regions in Africa have benefited more than others from FDI and ICT development, overall growth in these areas has been higher in sub-Saharan Africa than other parts of the continent.

Infrastructural Development as a Means of Attracting Foreign Direct Investmen...ijtsrd
This document discusses infrastructure development as a means of attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) for economic development in Nigeria. It examines the relationship between infrastructure, FDI, and economic growth. The document notes that developing infrastructure is key to any nation's development as it enables business activities and improves standards of living. While FDI can benefit recipient countries through capital, skills, and technology, Africa has struggled to attract FDI relative to other regions. The author argues that Africa's low level of infrastructure development deters investors and contributes to slower economic growth. The document aims to analyze FDI trends in Nigeria, assess government efforts to attract FDI, and determine FDI's impact on Nigeria's economy. It signifies the study's relevance
Economic Brief - Innovation and Productivity North Africa 2014Dr Lendy Spires
This article highlights the key determinants of innovation and their impact on the performance of firms in three North African countries (Algeria, Egypt and Morocco) on the basis of World Bank survey data on the investment climate. Initially, our econometric approach consists of estimating the impact of the traditional determinants of innovation by underscoring the critical role played by human capital in technological ownership and absorption. We then estimate the relationship between innovation and productivity taking into account certain characteristics of the investment climate and the quality of infrastructure and public services.
The main results suggest that, in North African countries, innovation is far from being the result of R&D and new technology creating activities alone. It also occurs by the adoption and adaptation of technologies created elsewhere through learning and assimilation-related mechanisms requiring more highly qualified human capital and improvement of the investment climate. We have also shown the weakness of the effect of technological externalities generated by export and foreign investment activities on innovation potential. The rigid structure of comparative advantages and the concentration of exports and FDI in activities with limited value addition which are poorly integrated in the local economy generate few upstream-downstream externalities.
Key Messages
• In North Africa, especially in Morocco and Egypt, the impact of qualified human resources on innovation incentives and productivity levels is insignificant. This points to the under-utilization and inefficient allocation of capital in these countries. • The impact of exports on innovation is insignificant, mainly as a result of the rigid structure of comparative advantages in these countries and the concentration of exports in sectors with little value addition and limited technological potential, particularly in the case of Morocco.
• To foster innovation and stimulate productivity, special attention should be paid to certain aspects of the national innovation system. The recommendations of this note are as follows: • Strengthen governance of the national innovation system;
• Stimulate the research and corporate environment with a view to decompartmentalizing the two spheres and ensuring more efficient and effective interfacing;
• Build support for the higher education system and vocational training in order to enhance human resource competencies to obtain a better contribution to the production and innovation processes;
• Create more advantageous incentive programmes for innovative FDI with higher value-addition, which is sufficiently well integrated upstream and downstream of the local economy; and
• Establish mechanisms for contractualization, supported by the State in the area of science and technology between the research centres, universities, potentially innovative local firms and foreign companies wishing to relocat

2) Granger causality tests reveal Nigeria's GDP causes FDI inflows from South Africa, and FDI from both South Africa and Ghana Granger causes Nigeria's GDP.
3) In the short run, past values of variables like FDI affect current values of Nigeria's GDP, indicating F

The document proposes a Technology Acquisition Fund (TAF) to help finance infrastructural development in developing nations. The TAF would collect tax-deductible contributions from major technology companies given the industry's significant growth. It estimates developing nations require $93-175 billion annually for infrastructure but only receive $40-83 billion currently. The TAF would identify viable development projects to fund using proceeds from technology product sales and services. Challenges include getting government adoption and regulations, matching funds to specific nations, and reluctance of tech companies to contribute.
