The partnership intends to lead the nation&#8217;s revolutionary cloud migration programme. This alliance was announced in a statement by Jacob Uwah, the lead partner of Afri-Tech United and a Nigerian IT specialist residing in the US. He emphasised that the strategic partnership was focused on creating a Master Cloud Platform, which would enable Nigeria to advance into a higher level of cyber sophistication and global technology leadership.<\/p>\n<p>According to Uwah, the Afri-Tech United team and Minister of Science, Technology, and Innovation, Uche Nnaji, spent several months discussing the best course of action for Nigeria&#8217;s revolutionary technology revolution. He mentioned that the collaboration resulted in the creation of the Master Cloud Platform&#8217;s architecture. &#8220;This project is paving the way for a new era of cyber excellence and is a testament to the power of collaboration,&#8221; the speaker stated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With highly sought-after strategic partnerships, this initiative aims to modernise our infrastructure, optimise the public and private sectors, and revitalise many of our traditional revenue-generating ventures,&#8221; Nnaji said. The minister went on to say that the current administration of President Bola Tinubu&#8217;s objective of creating 2 million tech employment annually was at the heart of the Afri-Tech cooperation. Nnaji noted, \u201cThe Master Cloud Platform also lays the foundation for Afri-Tech United\u2019s forthcoming Innovation Centre development.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Nigeria&#8217;s current technological hubs, the vision aims to take use of hyper-scale partnerships to provide Nigerian engineers access to robots, AI, and machine learning that has never been available in the nation before. Nigeria&#8217;s future is what we&#8217;re investing in, not just technology. Nigeria is prepared to lead the global cyber renaissance rather than merely partake in it, as we are prepared to demonstrate to the world.Driven by a goal of unity and empowerment, Afri-Tech United, headquartered in Seattle, WA, is at the forefront of African innovation and advancement.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/punchng.com\/fg-partners-us-firm-on-cloud-technology\/#:~:text=The%20Federal%20Ministry%20of%20Science,migration%20initiative%20within%20the%20country.\">Punch<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Afri-Tech United, a US-based tech consulting firm, and the Federal Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation have signed a contract.
