Gabon: Where Potential Meets Progress
Harnessing oil wealth for sustainable development through technology, education, and entrepreneurship
Key Development Challenges in Gabon
Transforming oil-dependent economy into a diversified, knowledge-based society for sustainable growth
Economic Diversification
Heavy reliance on oil revenues creates vulnerability to price fluctuations and limits job creation in other sectors, requiring urgent economic diversification strategies.
Youth Employment Crisis
Despite oil wealth, youth unemployment remains high at 35%, with limited opportunities in technology, entrepreneurship, and modern service sectors.
Digital Skills Gap
Limited digital literacy and tech skills training prevent youth from accessing global opportunities in freelancing, e-commerce, and digital entrepreneurship.
SME Development Barriers
Small businesses lack access to modern marketing, branding, and digital tools needed to compete effectively in regional and international markets.
Innovation Ecosystem
Limited startup incubation, venture capital, and innovation hubs restrict the growth of technology-driven businesses and creative industries.
Regional Integration
Insufficient cross-border business networks and limited participation in Central African regional value chains reduce trade opportunities and economic growth.
