New Delhi, December 1: In a speech to the Global Technology Summit, Nanjira Sambuli, fellow, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, said that India has a great opportunity to shift the focus of the world to the developing communities or the global south, and that a series of G20 presidency be hosted by developing countries and emerging markets can be started.So, for the first time, there is an excellent opportunity to center the realities of what's happening in the world outside of the West, whether it's technology, climate change, etc.I think it has been a good opportunity for India to also collaborate with the African continent in tackling terrorism, and to help generate ideas on how they could bring Attention to the real problems of people in a real crisis, she said.She said that the African continent has a unique opportunity to work together to address the issues, whether it be a group of countries, regional communities, or so on.I think there is always a chance, and I believe we've even heard that this would be a high priority of India-Africa integration, she said.She continued by highlighting the challenges of geopolitics and technology in both countries, emphasising how to connect their people so that we can unlock the value of digital technologies and digital economies for our societies.
When bulls or elephants fight, it is the grass that suffers, and we must focus on what gives us the ability to capitalize on the promise of technology for our societies, she continued.She spoke at the seventh edition of the Global Technology Summit, which started on Tuesday and ended on Thursday in New Delhi.The Summit, which is held annually in India, is co-hosted by the Ministry of External Affairs and Carnegie India.The theme for this year's summit was Geopolitics of Technology.
