As Cabo Verde works to enhance its ICT infrastructure, there are numerous opportunities to export technology, materials, and technical support to the country. Several small companies are developing apps, and the government is actively supporting these innovative efforts. These digital startups are seeking further investment to fully develop and export their products. This year, Cabo Verde plans to launch a "technology park" aimed at fostering an ICT cluster and establishing the country as a key international ICT hub and gateway to Africa for IT companies. The park will include a data center, business center, incubation center, and training facility equipped with ICT resources. This development will create opportunities for exporting U.S. equipment and providing technical support and training.
