This is such an inspiring initiative! At Skyocean, we’re building a Web3 platform powered by decentralized technology to empower SMEs with secure access to global trade and decentralized capital. Ghana is part of our pilot program, where we will be showcasing how blockchain and decentralized knowledge graph can bridge the $2.6 trillion trade finance gap and drive economic inclusion. We’d love to connect with like-minded individuals for collaboration, networking, or even if you’re simply curious about what we’re building. Feel free to DM me—let’s transform trade together! 🚀

What if the next wave of trade transformation is powered by Emerging Technology? As a United Nations Youth Association-Ghana (UNYA-GH) Ambassador for Sustainable Digital Transformation, I recently had the privilege of training young leaders on the role that #emergingtechnologies can play in shaping the future of trade. Representing the International Trade Centre and our mission of "Transforming Trade, Changing Lives," the focus was on equipping these future leaders to think beyond borders and traditional practices. We explored the potential of what I call the "ABC" of emerging tech: #ArtificialIntelligence, #Blockchain, #Computing(Power). These fields are advancing at an unprecedented rate and have the power to reshape how global trade is done. Tech can expand economic inclusion, enhance transparency, and drive new efficiencies across industries. In small groups, participants used the #BusinessModelCanvas (BMC) to envision themselves as African businesses, selecting an emerging technology—AI, blockchain, or computing power—and strategizing how to leverage it to obtain a competitive edge in cross-continental trade with #AfCFTA in mind. This exercise connected critical business thinking and emerging technology with Continental Trade. The energy in the room and the feedback from participants were inspiring, as new minds opened to possibilities and realized the transformative power of tech. What emerging tech trends do you think will most impact global trade?
