🌍 L’Afrique a le talent nécessaire pour créer l’IA. Alors, que lui manque-t-il?
Passer de l’utilisation de l’intelligence artificielle à sa création nécessite bien plus que des idées.
Il faut des infrastructures mais aussi, de la puissance de calcul, des compétences et des espaces où chacun peut apprendre, collaborer et donner vie à ses idées.
🔑 C’est ce que nous construisons avec AISCA :
🔹Donner aux chercheurs et aux innovateurs africains accès à du calcul
🔹Renforcer les compétences sur toute la chaîne de valeur de l’IA
🔹Créer une communauté et un environment où l’innovation peut s’épanouir.
Des subventions en calcul aux Maisons et Studios AISCA, nous contribuons à poser les bases d’une Afrique créatrice d’IA.

He did it again! Surprised me for my retirement and birthday. All the way from Thailand. The best gift I could have asked. Well done!

Today, MINICT signed an MoU with @AISCAfrica to advance collaboration in artificial intelligence (AI), focusing on skills development, research, innovation, and locally relevant solutions.
The partnership aims to build Rwanda’s talent and promote the responsible development and use of emerging technologies in line with national priorities.

Thank you, @RwandaICT. This partnership goes to the heart of our mandate: building Africa's AI talent and expanding access to the skills and compute behind locally relevant solutions. Proud to collaborate with MINICT on Rwanda's national priorities and responsible AI.

Thank you my dear brother President @CyrilRamaphosa for your warm congratulations and offer of support. We look forward to working with you and all who share this vision as we make this a truly African Grand Prix in every way possible, and take motorsport to new heights on our continent.

Congratulations to my brother, President @PaulKagame and the people of Rwanda on securing the @F1 Formula 1 African Grand Prix. This historic achievement reflects your resilience, vision, and smart hard work. Zambia shares your pride in this milestone for Rwanda and Africa. HH

Surprised that of US$ 926.66 million already spent by various donors to Congo to help fight the current Ebola epidemic, $700 million had disappeared? This is why one of the world's richest countries in mineral wealth also has some of the poorest people!

The DRC Foreign Minister should worry about the ongoing criminal investigation in Belgium on money laundering and plundering of Katanga's mineral resources by President Tshisekedi and his family, rather than worrying about success stories in neighbouring countries.

Formula 1 will “polish the image of an authoritarian leader” if it goes ahead with plans to hold an African Grand Prix in Rwanda, the foreign minister of neighbouring DR of Congo, Therese Kayikwamba Wagner, said Thursday.

The 'Be CyberSmart' launch event featured insightful panel discussions, comprehensive question-and-answer sessions and vital takeaways.
Whether focused on corporate or personal protection, one thing is for certain: cybersecurity must not be a single month of awareness but rather become a daily part of our lives as the world evolves digitally.

“We are looking at Rwanda in the context of the continent. This is what young Africans deserve. We have to make sure that what we are saying translates into realities that we want our people to benefit from.” President Kagame #f1 #africangp

“It is an honour and privilege for Rwanda to be chosen as a destination in the Formula One calendar. What brought us together is a shared conviction that Africa has the potential to elevate the quality of motorsports as a global and elite discipline.
Integrating African markets with global sports franchises and competitions offers transformative opportunities. Yet, if we have to be honest with ourselves, this cross-border connection has existed for a long time, just not in Africa’s favour.
The message for all of us is simple: sports is a great equalizer, but we have to be intentional about delivering this promise. Rwanda is happy and excited to be part of a journey that will change how Africa is perceived in the world of sports. We want to contribute, not just participate, and this new chapter in motorsports starts today" President Kagame | Formula 1 African Grand Prix Announcement

“The space economy is evolving rapidly, driven by lower costs, new technologies, and greater private-sector engagement.
Africa intends to be a full participant in this growth, not only as a user of space capabilities, but also as a contributor to science, research, and global decision-making.
For a continent with a young and increasingly connected population, this sector offers enormous potential.
With the right support, our talent pool can develop the relevant expertise, and build businesses, and create real value for Africa.” President Kagame | International Space Summit.
