According to OXFORD Business, The development of the ICT sector in Côte d’Ivoire has been led mostly by the fast expansion of telecoms services — and mobile activity in particular — over recent years. As with many frontier markets, the IT segment of the sector, which includes hardware and software development, cloud computing and networking, has lagged somewhat behind.Although this reality is equally visible in many other West African economies, consumer and business usage in the country continue to evolve at a slower pace, hampered by the lack of sufficient human resources and the still incipient emergence of a domestic IT cluster.
