DuringAfrica Tech Week held in 4-5 March 2019, the UK and South Africa announced they will collaborate to lead the Commonwealth Digital Connectivity Agenda that aims to promote prosperity through digital trade. The agenda advocates inclusive growth and sustainable development in the Commonwealth through exchanging best practices and views on digital connectivity. By allowing members to potentialise digitisation, member states will collaborate to develop national digital economies through improving information and communication technology (ICT) capabilities, regulatory frameworks, digital infrastructure, identifying disruptive effects of digital trade, and the participation of women in the digital economy. 'As Commonwealth countries prepare to embrace the opportunities this offers, and to ensure that the smaller and more vulnerable are not left behind, collaboration and innovation are of supreme importance,' said Commonwealth Secretary-General, Patricia Scotland. This was further reinforced by South African Minister for Trade and Industry Dr Rob Davies, who noted that '[a]ppropriate policies and measures need to be taken to ensure that developing countries benefit from the advantages of technological progress and do not suffer from lack of its early adoption'.
