Africa's development is an exciting challenge where African Universities play a vital role. Much like in Western countries, African universities have the great opportunity to shape the minds of those who will bring innovation and development to the continent. Afric@Tech is excited to be a forum where this topic can be discussed and where Africans can be inspired to make positive change. Afric@Tech is also excited to use this forum as an means to facilitate collaboration and exchange of knowledge between Georgia Tech and African universities.
