It comes from strong systems \u2014 education that empowers, industries that create jobs, infrastructure that connects markets, and governance that builds trust.<\/p>\r\n<p>Digital technology, renewable energy, and regional trade (like the African Continental Free Trade Area) are key to unlocking this next level.
