“ The next two or three years are all about cloud ”
— Victor Taiwo ,
CEO , Afrissance Digital
353 in Africa are unfavourable towards cloud-based solutions due to concerns around data residency and data security , however , Taiwo sees the tide of legislation in Africa beginning to soften and expects the implementation of cloud solutions to become more prominent in the region . “ It means we can champion software as a service ( SaaS ),” explains Victor . “ It also allows us to work more remotely because it ’ s in the cloud and everyone can access it at the same time . The next two or three years are all about cloud penetration . It ’ s already started in the more developed economies of the world and , as the legislation continues to allow , we ’ re going to see more penetration in Africa . It will also allow more linearity between Europe and Africa because it means we ’ re all working off the same solution .”
