The Head of the Libyan-Tunisian-Algerian conference towards digital and free economic transformation in Africa, Yassin Abu Sreweel, said that the conference aims to promote the culture of the digital economy in light of the African countries’ dependence on traditional economic methods.
In a press conference at the headquarters of the Investment Promotion and Privatization Affairs Authority in Tripoli, Abu Sreweel added that the conference program aims to hold working sessions between the participating countries to exchange experiences in a way that develops a culture of the digital economy.
He pointed out that there is an urgent need at the present time for economic transformation, amid expectations of a decline in global oil prices, with the continued weakness of African countries in managing economies through methods of diversification between the public and private sectors.
Meanwhile, the Chairman of the Preparatory Committee for the Conference, Abdelsamie Amer, confirmed that the conference comes as a continuation of the Mediterranean Conference that was held in November last year.
It is noteworthy that the Libyan-Tunisian-Algerian conference towards digital and free economic transformation in Africa will hold its first session on March 01, in the Tunisian capital, with the support of the Investment Promotion and Privatization Affairs Authority, the Financial Facility Fund and the National Planning Council.
