Nigeria’s digital economic zone management company, and Africa Finance Corporation (AFC), an infrastructure solutions provider, have agreed to jointly develop a digital economic zone in Africa designed for global and Pan-African technology, finance and service-based businesses to operate and scale with ease across Africa, unlocking the continent’s digital economy.
The formalisation of this partnership took place yesterday in front of global government and business leaders, at the Global Africa Business Initiative (GABI), on the sidelines of the ongoing United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York.
The Itana Digital Economic Zone in Lagos, Nigeria is intended as an online jurisdiction and a gateway to build a global business in Nigeria. Through Itana, companies can remotely incorporate and operate their businesses in the Itana zone, with laws, business incentives (tax, immigration & banking), and services optimized for the digital economy.
