The National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), the World Bank, and the World Trade Organisation (WTO) have teamed up to accelerate diversification through industrialisation and digital trade.
This was made known when the DG of NITDA, Kashifu Inuwa, played host to a delegation from the World Bank and the WTO, led by Aleksandar Stojanov at the agency’s corporate headquarters in Abuja yesterday.
The meeting was centred on fostering deep collaboration between the two organisations to enhance digital trade and cross-border data services and sharing ideas on developing regulatory policies that would accelerate economic growth through technological innovations.
Speaking on the agency’s move to review most of its regulations, Inuwa said: “We started with recrafting our Strategic Roadmap and Action Plan 2.0 for 2024-2027, which has eight strategic pillars, among which is Strengthening Policy Implementation and Legal Framework, and what we need to put in place to make sure we create an enabling environment for the digital economy and digital trade.”
