Africa is the youngest continent in the world, Africa is getting younger every year and her largest population segment is the youth. Interestingly, the youth are predominantly the drivers of mobile and the mobile industry is on the verge of a second wave of data-driven growth. The industry is poised to propel the delivery of even more value-added services.
The emergence of data as a key strategic area and the next frontier for growth in the mobile industry mimic similar trends in other developed markets. Driven by increased penetration of the smartphone, as affordable entry-level devices become more accessible, data is shaping up as the new focus area. Demand for smartphones and data has been substantially driven by an exploding youth market, an increasing number of tech-savvy, middle-class consumers with growing disposable incomes.
Similarities are evident, though at varying degrees, have been recorded across markets in sub-Saharan Africa. It is estimated that there are nearly 200 million smartphone connections on the continent, which translates into one in every four mobile connections. The trajectory of internet penetration is expected to continue to rise, powered by the aspiration to deliver universal access to the internet, in line with long-term socio-economic development goals.
Enter Youthia. The role of Youthia is two-fold – leveraging the youth data opportunity for commercial reasons, while delivering unmatched value to AFR token holders. This is reliant on reliability of service and the best value for token holders. Data is more than just a luxury today; it helps achieve critical socio-economic benefits.
