 The essence of collaboration and knowledge sharing to educate and empower Africans on trends and possibilities of the future of work and businesses has been brought to the fore. This was the focus of the inauguration of the Knowledge Digest Africa conference aimed at building the continent's largest one-stop digital knowledge bank details in this report. It has often been said that most businesses died not necessarily from lack of funds, but as a result of theirs are fresh ideas, new technologies and facts to ensure productivity. It is against this backdrop that this digital knowledge bank has been put together. In her keynote address, Commissioner for Education in Lagos State, for Lashadi Adifisayo, emphasizes the place of collaboration. The founder of the Digest, Samson Olatunde, who speaks about his passion for the past 15 years, says the country must leverage emerging digital technology to produce employees of labor for the 21st century. Look at the synergy that you can get from using online platforms. How many people can you teach in a class? 30, 40, 50? How many people can you teach online? Millions. So I think that because there's a masterclass component of it and there's also the fact that there's a market component of it. How many people enter a bookshop to buy a book? But how many people go online to buy a book? So I think it's a great initiative and I hope many people will tap into it. We believe that many people are struggling with implementation because they probably expect knowledge from a developed country and then many things are structured in a developed country, unlike our country that is developing an older African country. So we felt why can't we look for business leaders, executive career professionals who have been there for over a decade, right? They've gone through a lot in their country, in the industry, so they will be able to share experiences and help many people connect more to navigate in terms of maybe they want to start their business, they want to sustain their business, they want to scale up their business, most importantly they want to build a system around their business which is saving them stress, time, energy and money, system saves you stress, time, energy and money. And the whole idea of knowledge that is just Africa is going to be a collaboration with order, young think guys, people in different industries for medications. All the speakers share their thoughts on the need for a digital bank, including the immediate past president of the chartered institute of bankers of Nigeria, who gives useful insight on the need to create tri-generational wells. Most businesses that would die, die within the first two, three, four years. And if you are able to sustain a business beyond 10 years, then it makes sense that you try as much as possible that that business at least you. The ecosystem thinking means I'm not the sole provider of a solution, okay. I get in touch with people who are like minds, people who can actually augment whatever product that I'm developing such that it moves from being a product into a solution. That way first you can reduce your cost of delivery because other people are imputing to the cost of delivery. Two, you can have a faster route to market that way because a lot of people are bringing in expertise that you don't have on your own alone. My information on the platform shows commitment towards providing digital learning in line with the digital policy of the federal government.
