In this sense, the Government of Cape Verde should promote a strategy to integrate the Cape Verdean technological entrepreneurial ecosystem with the European and Silicon Valley innovation and entrepreneurship networks, as its internal market is small and access to scale and large markets to succeed in innovative digital entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n<p>For this to happen, there must be political will and a well-thought-out and structured plan of action.<\/p>\n<p>Cape Verde now has a well-thought-out and ambitious policy for its entrepreneurial ecosystem. Additionally, it has people in the diaspora placed in positions that can leverage Cape Verde&#8217;s connection to several relevant centers.<\/p>\n<p>LBC has carried out more than 50 projects in Cape Verde since 2005, the year in which LBC began its internationalization process.<\/p>\n<p>Among the various projects carried out in Cape Verde, the strategy for the Information Society and Electronic Governance stands out, which laid the foundations for building Cape Verde&#8217;s digital development, the feasibility study and initial strategy for the Technology Park of Praia, the Mundo Novo Program for the application of information technologies in schools.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Cape Verde, LBC has carried out projects in five more countries on the African continent: Angola, Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau, South Africa and Ghana. Currently, African markets account for around 50% of LBC&#8217;s global turnover, which makes us very proud.<\/p>\n<p>You can see the interview in the Jornal Econ\u00f3mico. <a href=\"https:\/\/jornaleconomico.pt\/noticias\/cabo-verde-pode-vir-a-ser-a-singapura-de-africa-diz-consultora-lbc-500321\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A prop\u00f3sito do evento Cabo Verde e os Desafios de Futuro realizado em Cabo Verde, na Cidade da Praia, no dia 11 de outubro, a Ag\u00eancia Lusa fez uma reportagem destacando\u2026<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":830,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"setor":[],"pais":[],"servico":[],"class_list":["post-831","noticia","type-noticia","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-and-events"],"acf":{"pt_translation_ready":true},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
