Powering Progress through Connectivity: GSMA’s Mobile Economy Sub-Saharan Africa Report Calls for Action to Close the Digital Divide

New report highlights opportunities in AI, 5G, and satellite connectivity to bridge a 60% usage gap and unlock $170 Billion in GDP by 2030

NAIROBI, Kenya, Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The mobile industry’s $140 billion contribution to GDP in 2023 is projected to reach $170 billion by 2030 if key connectivity barriers are addressed. These are insights from the flagship Mobile Economy Sub-Saharan Africa 2024 Report unveiled by GSMA today. Mobile technology is essential in supporting development goals across key sectors like healthcare, education, and finance, driving economic growth by expanding internet access and digital services.

As digitalisation accelerates, the report highlights that 4G expansion is set to drive connectivity, projected to account for half of all connections by 2030. However, a significant coverage gap remains, with 13% of the population still unreached, and a 60% usage gap affecting those who live within coverage areas but face barriers to get online, such as unaffordable devices, limited digital skills, or online safety concerns.

In addition to these connectivity challenges, the region faces high operating costs, inflationary pressures, and energy price volatility. Despite these obstacles, emerging trends such as generative AI and satellite partnerships present innovative solutions to bridge gaps across sectors. Broader API solutions, such as GSMA Open Gateway, which recently launched security APIs in South Africa, are poised to enhance digital security and simplify services as these initiatives expand regionally. Addressing these issues is essential to unlocking the socio-economic potential of mobile connectivity in Sub-Saharan Africa.

“Our findings this year reveal both the extraordinary potential and the challenges facing Sub-Saharan Africa’s mobile ecosystem,” said Angela Wamola, Head of Sub-Saharan Africa, GSMA. “To fully realise the benefits of connectivity, it is essential for operators, policymakers, and stakeholders to address affordability barriers, support infrastructure expansion, and foster collaborations that drive digital inclusion and economic impact.”

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — 24/7 Software , a leading provider of operations management software, is experiencing record-breaking growth with its industry-first business intelligence (BI) tool for venue operations. Since its launch, more than 75 venues worldwide have integrated the solution, making it the go-to platform for optimizing safety, security, facilities management, and the guest experience.

“The rapid adoption of our BI tool proves its value in streamlining venue operations,” said Matthew Dobrosevic, Vice President of Product for Analytics and Integrations at 24/7 Software. “By uniting departments such as safety, facilities, and guest services under one platform, venues gain real-time insights that drive operational excellence. From large, sophisticated venues to smaller facilities, our solution is helping teams increase efficiency and report on key data.”

The BI tool’s flexibility has led to its expansion into new markets, including convention centers, performing arts venues, amusement parks, zoos, and large entertainment districts. Its ability to adapt to both small venues and large multi-venue organizations has fueled its rapid growth.

Case in Point: The Kansas City Chiefs

As the reigning NFL champion and operators of a world-class venue, the Kansas City Chiefs set the gold standard for excellence both on and off the field. To maintain their leadership in venue operations, the Chiefs have fully integrated 24/7 Software’s analytics product, revolutionizing data-driven decision-making.

With new real-time event dashboards in their control room and advanced executive reporting tools, the Chiefs can precisely track trends in incident types and software usage. This ensures that key data fields—such as priority, section, and incident closeout—are consistently and accurately completed, enhancing operational efficiency. By comparing data across different time frames, they monitor real-time performance and proactively address gaps to ensure smooth event execution.

“Our ability to identify trends and make quick, data-backed decisions has been crucial in ensuring the safety of our fans and maintaining seamless venue operations,” said Dave Felsen, Special Projects for the Kansas City Chiefs. “With 24/7 Software’s analytics, we are always ahead of the game.”

24/7 Software’s BI tool transforms how multi-venue operators manage safety, security, and operations. By integrating data from systems such as incident management, video surveillance, and ticketing into a centralized dashboard, the platform provides real-time visibility and actionable insights.

A major amusement park operator implemented the solution within weeks  and gained real-time visibility into critical operational data across all its parks, enhancing safety measures and improving guest experiences.

Similarly, Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) has leveraged the new Advanced Analytics product to create real-time dashboards for all events.
