Embracing Geopolitics in the 4th Industrial Revolution The 4th Industrial Revolution is reshaping global trade, and Africa must be at the forefront—positioning itself as a key player in critical minerals, technology, and advanced manufacturing through agro-product export-import. We can no longer afford to rely on 20th-century trade tactics in a 21st-century technological world. Michigan, with its strategic proximity to Canada, offers a unique advantage as a gateway for African raw materials—bridging critical mineral supply chains, fueling EV and battery manufacturing, and advancing agro-product trade. The world’s future industries demand modern, tech-driven trade policies, and Africa must leverage AI, automation, and sustainable logistics to build an efficient, competitive global economy. If we truly want to reshape trade dynamics and create real economic mobility, we must think forward, innovate boldly, and forge stronger global partnerships. #Geopolitics #4IR #AfricaRising #CriticalMinerals #TechTrade #AdvancedManufacturing #GlobalTrade #MichiganTrade #AfCFTA #Innovation

?? Geopolitics in the 21st Century: The Role of African Women in Business, Government, and Technology ?? In today's interconnected world, geopolitics isn’t just about diplomacy—it’s about trade, investment, technology, and innovation. African women are playing a defining role in reshaping global partnerships, driving economic growth, and leading cross-border collaborations. ? In government, they are influencing policies that strengthen Africa’s trade ties with North America and beyond. ? In business, they are spearheading initiatives in manufacturing, mobility, supply chain, and fintech to ensure Africa remains a competitive player. ? In technology, they are building solutions that connect African markets to global opportunities, from e-commerce to digital payments and artificial intelligence. As we move into a strategic position on Africa, the conversation around trade hubs, investment corridors, and supply chain diversification becomes even more critical. This is why the GABA Marketplace Center recognizes the need for African women to lead these discussions, develop key partnerships, and drive meaningful economic impact. Now is the time for strategic investment in African women leaders. Their expertise, vision, and leadership will shape the global economic landscape for decades to come. ?? #Geopolitics #AfricanWomenInLeadership #Trade #Innovation #Business #WomenInTech #GlobalTrade #AfricaRising #GABAMarketplaceCenter
