Africa Tech Kin with Danny that Guy: RBZ payments blackout, Econet 5G Rollout and AI now the future

Loading player...
In this week's episode, we start by dissecting the massive RBZ payments blackout that brought Zimbabwe's economy to a standstill last week. Then, we dive deep into Econet's game-changing integrated annual report - an aggressive 5G rollout, the strategic consolidation of its FinTech empire, and why Artificial Intelligence is now the "cornerstone" of its future.
We also discuss President Mnangagwa's pitch for tech partnerships on the world stage and ask, can our power grid support the energy-hungry demands of an AI-powered future? We wrap up with a mind-bending trip to the World Robot Conference in Beijing, featuring humanoid assistants, robotic chefs, and a surprising new role for robots in maternal healthcare.Join Danny that Guy for The Africa Tech Kin every Tuesday straight after the news at 7pm on ZiFM Stereo
