Edison Gbenga Ade who is a 29 year old is a developer from Ghana. He created an app platform that provides access to markets and information about prices, to help farmers negotiate better deals and improve the timing of getting their crops to market. He hopes this app will tranform the standard living for farmers and help them address food shortage.
This app has the potential to transform lives and how we do business. The app may not be as exciting as a driverless car, but is an increasingly important facet of nearly all aspects of life in Ghana or other struggling countries. It will be largely invisible to most people, even as it increasingly informs and shapes decisions of business, government, and individuals.
