Digital SA Nation


In this Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) world, South Africa’s dream is to have a globally competitive, inclusive, and shared economy with the technological capability and production capacity that is driven by people harnessing the 4IR to propel the country forward towards its social and economic goals, instead of falling behind.
Digitalise industries recover the local economy and ensure social progress with a globally competitive, inclusive, and shared economy.
SAtion will enable the realisation of the 4IR dream resulting in South Africa becoming a digitally advanced country. This will enable economy recovery and social progress plus a globally competitive, inclusive, and shared economy.

“The successful creation of a Digital Nation is as critical as South Africa’s Rainbow Nation vision that was initiated in 1994 by Nelson Mandela.
Before the global COVID-19 pandemic, SA was already facing a national economic divide owing to a struggling economy and low employment rate. The global COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the economic situation and further impacted livelihoods.
Under the Chairmanship of President Ramaphosa, the PC4IR has developed the vision, purpose, and strategy for the digitalisation of our economy. Key workstreams have been mobilised with the key consideration being urgency, accountability, and progressive outcomes.
The 4IR is not in the future; it is the present.
It is imperative that the country reorganises itself to ensure that all citizens are positioned to benefit from the opportunities presented in the digital economy. We, as a country, all need to unite to sow the vision into reality, transforming the economy that will enable SA to thrive in the Fourth Industrial Revolution and achieve financial stability.
Let us build and realise South Africa’s digital vision now, together!”
