Africa is the only region in the world where the youth population is increasing. By 2050 Africa's young people, i.e., those aged between 0 and 24 years, will increase by nearly 50%. The potentials for the gaming industry cannot be overemphasised. Africa's youth are critical to the continent's future when it comes to mobile and gaming.
