With advancement in technology today, the focus of most communities is gradually shifting from having safe borders to playing a major role in a worldwide digital economy. With billions of online interactions across these borders, one would agree that this paradigm shift has continued to influence every aspect of our society, with the potential to transform Africa.
Concordium is interested in developing the African community and building strong partnerships with significant technological associations, as it seeks to identify the prevalent problems and offer sustainable solutions across the continent.

Lars joins us on the Inside Blockchain to discuss prospects of the Concordium Blockchain and how it can be leveraged to build scalable solutions that will improve the African tech space.
Speaking on the show, Lars expressed his optimism by saying;
“I think there are tremendous opportunities for Africa as a whole, and Nigeria is one of the most important tech center in Africa. I think blockchain (Concordium) can solve real problems that one might have in Identity and Ownership, bringing more transparency especially in the public sector…I think there is a great future for tech here and for many reasons, there’s a high adoption of tech in Nigeria based on real needs”
