Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has been invited to deliver a lecture at the University of Buckingham in the United Kingdom (UK) on digitisation of the economy.
He will speak on ‘Ghana’s role in shaping Africa’s Economic Transformation through Digitalisation and Strengthened Relations with the UK.
The Vice President who is an alumnus of the University, will give the fourth annual Centre for UN Studies lecture at the Vinson Centre on May 9, 2022 in the UK.
Dr. Bawumia, who has spearheaded government’s successful digitalization drive, is expected to explain the Government’s vision, the measures undertaken so far, and address the impact of digitalization on the economy and service delivery, both by government and the private sector, linking it with UK.
The lecture will attract several international organisations, and with Ghana globally known as a digitalization pacesetter on the African continent, Dr. Bawumia is also expected to highlight Ghana’s success story to inspire other African countries to emulate Ghana’s lead.
