Ehi Binitie Clearspace Labs: In this series, business leaders and innovators from the Ghanaian and African Diaspora / Black Business Community talk about the future of doing business in Africa and across the Diaspora community.
In this episode, Ehi talks to Amma Gyampo, Co-Founder ScaleUp Africa about his work deploying emergent technologies to achieve global impact and doubling down on values in times of uncertainty.
He also makes the case for applications of basic services deployed via high-tech solutions for the mass markets and essential services needs of the African population. The smartphone moved from being a luxury device to an essential device. B2B tech interventions will make an immense difference at a fundamental level if the target problem is clearly defined. The knock on effect will be on the consumer.
AI: All the major telcos are already using AI for customer service, sales, healthcare in Africa. AI is also being deployed for back office processes. For SMEs, AI presents and entrepreneurial and efficiency opportunity.

ScaleUp Africa Ecosystem Conversations - Tomi Davies Africa Business Angel Network
Tomi Davies talks about the problem of Silo working and the lack of commercial viability of the startups taking part in the myriad, below par SME and Entrepreneurship programs.
Angel investing will only thrive by engaging those with a vested interest in the host city, those with a passion for where they live and choose to invest.
Corporate Sponsored Ecosystems and Programs should be designed with Entrepreneurs. Corporates have seen an erosion in their R& D budgets and now should realise the importance of SMEs and innovators to their future competitiveness. ''The only way to take advantage is to find ventures that address your industry needs, work with them and then over time they become a unit or acquisition prospect for your business.''
