Orange, the European Union, and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) have launched the “DigiGreen & Agri” project in Côte d’Ivoire with an $8 million investment to drive digital transformation, aiming to foster innovation for a more sustainable and inclusive economy.
The project’s key objectives include creating quality jobs, supporting startup growth and funding, and encouraging sustainable investments, focusing on empowering rural youth, women, girls, and individuals with disabilities through the Orange Digital Center in Côte d’Ivoire. This partnership seeks to enhance professional skills, promote entrepreneurship, develop sustainable digital solutions, and accelerate the growth of seed startups, ultimately supporting youth talent, entrepreneurship, and economic development in vulnerable communities.
