Points clés à retenir
Africa's tech ecosystem's remarkable growth can be attributed not only to the influx of billions of dollars from local and foreign investors but also to its flourishing talent pool. The continent's homegrown talents, such as software developers (whose numbers have increased by nearly 4% to 716,000, as per Google's Africa Developer Report), UI/UX designers, engineers, and other tech professionals, are highly sought after both locally and internationally. Consequently, numerous talent-matching platforms have emerged across Africa, including notable ones like OfferZen, Propel, Andela, GOMYCODE, AltSchool, Decagon, and more looking to tap into this market opportunity.
