Digital transformation within African supply chains is gaining momentum as it tackles the region's unique challenges. Industry leaders are actively exploring the potential of technologies such as blockchain, the Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI) to revolutionize the supply chain landscape. Despite facing obstacles like infrastructure limitations and regulatory complexities, African supply chains offer significant opportunities for digital transformation. These technologies can enhance transparency, address inefficiencies, and improve responsiveness—all of which are crucial for the region's progress. I had the privilege to discuss and explore how companies are boldly disrupting this area, showcasing the transformative power of these tools and featuring insights from Shai de Toledo on HB Antwerp's innovative technologies. Shai has spearheaded the development of innovative technologies, from ledger to the HB Capsule, an Internet of Things device that secures each HB diamond throughout its journey from the mine to the buyer. Charles Kotze's real-life use case application at Relax Solutions exemplifies AI integration. Their integrated platform leverages artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve analytics, forecasting, and optimisation processes effectively. Additionally, the collaborative efforts and advancements presented by Stimela Martin Thato and his achievements illuminate the transformative power of digital technologies on African supply chains and the desire to break barriers. To gain a competitive advantage, we must proactively adopt innovative solutions and leverage these tools. This approach will help us create a more efficient, transparent, and responsive supply chain ecosystem across the continent. Embracing these changes is crucial for our growth and success! #BotswanaSupplyChainSummit #TransportAndLogistics #BSCS #Innovation

"There is no doubt this change is coming, it is inevitable. The more you celebrate it and the more you're at the forefront of it, the more people will look at you - at Botswana - as the shining light."   "Once you show that you can achieve more - people will follow. If not for the logic, then for the pocket."   🎙️ Shai de Toledo on BTV News
