Technology ministers across Africa are looking to introduce startup visas to support innovation and startup growth while simultaneously addressing the brain drain wave on the continent.
Technology ministers from Algeria, South Africa, Tunisia, Botswana, and Nigeria were all in attendance.
The startup visa will facilitate the free movement of startups on the continent and help to boost the mobility of young entrepreneurs on the continent.
This could also be viewed as another step in achieving a borderless Africa with free movement of people and trade.
