THE Government is crafting a new Information Communication Technology (ICT) policy to drive growth of this strategically key economic sector over the next 10 years.
ICT, Postal and Courier Services Minister Jenfan Muswere said the ICT master plan will guide the sector’s contribution to economic growth in line with Government’s Vision 2030.
“My ministry is working on the SMART Zimbabwe 2030 Master Plan, which seeks to exploit the potential of ICTs so that Zimbabwe attains its vision of becoming an upper middle-income economy by 2030.
“This vision is predicated on, among others, building on the achievements of the Zimbabwe National Policy on ICTs of 2016 to 2020 which further strengthens Zimbabwe’s economic base and improves its economic environment for accelerated growth towards achieving a Digital Government, a Digital Economy and a Digital Society, by 2030,” he said.
