Web 3.0 Technologies take center stage: Emurgo Africa set to unveil Africa’s first state of Web 3.0 in Africa report

A Comprehensive State of Web 3.0 in Africa Report, is set to be released on June 23, 2023. The report highlights the rapidly-evolving landscape of Web 3.0 technologies in African countries, providing in-depth analysis of their impact, opportunities, and challenges and offering recommendations for fostering growth and measurable impact.

Web 3.0 technologies are experiencing exponential growth and expansion in Africa, with the potential to bring transformative change to various industries such as trade and industry, financial services and lending, supply chain management and logistics and healthcare provision and accessibility. Factors such as regulatory clarity, infrastructure development, and collaboration between stakeholders will play a significant role in the widespread use and successful implementation of these technologies.

The report, sponsored by Emurgo Africa, will be launched at a media event in Nairobi, Kenya, with industry leaders, policymakers and press in attendance. Key figures from prominent blockchain investors, developer and ecosystem players, including NODO, CVVC, GreenHouse Capital, PwC and Cardano, will deliver notable conversations and remarks at the event.

The Report aims to fill a knowledge gap by examining the potential of these technologies to advance social and economic development in Africa. It presents a detailed view of the current landscape and future prospects of Web 3.0 technologies in the region, featuring real-world use cases, possibilities and obstacles connected with their adoption.

The Report explores various aspects of Web 3.0, such as decentralized finance (DeFi), blockchain technology, digital identity, smart contracts, and data privacy. It also investigates the regulatory environment, infrastructure, and access to technology in the target nations, identifying areas for development that will facilitate the growth and adoption of Web 3.0 technologies.

Key findings from the report include the immense opportunities for the African continent through the adoption of Web 3.0 technologies, a staggering 1,668% increase in investment in blockchain technology in Africa between 2021 and 2022, and the crucial importance of collaboration between industry stakeholders, policymakers, and regulators in fostering an environment conducive to the growth of Web 3.0 technologies.
