Latin America, a developing market, is in many respects driving the global digital transformation of payments through unending innovation and novel forms of collaboration. This was the conclusion of a recent chat between PayU Latam CEO Francisco Leon and PYMNTS Karen Webster. Leon stated that the platform has continued to invest in innovation in both crossborder and local payment methods, and that this is paying off despite the current economic recession. We are expanding 14 times faster than local merchants when I compare growth rates between what is occurring with crossborder merchants and local retailers, he said. Noting that Latam customers interact with eCommerce more regularly, he stated that it is the duty of payments platforms, financial institutions, and technology providers to enhance velocity.

Business leaders worry that by declaring a national state of emergency over load shedding in South Africa, the countrys business environment will be disrupted, investors will be turned off, and development will be halted. According to the ANC, declaring a catastrophe would allow for an immediate response to the problem. When a calamity occurs, emergency powers are activated, which may restrict constitutional rights and permit abuses by those in authority. In the event that Zimbabwe declares a state of calamity, the government will have to specify the measures that will be implemented to put an end to the crisis. Business success, according to Mavuso, depends on how consistently and fairly the law is applied.  Read More..

According to the report, 90% of granted permissions are unused, 59% of containers have no defined CPU limits, and 69% of requested CPU resources are unused. As a result, organisations have overspent by 40%, with more than $10 million wasted on large cloud deployments. Furthermore, 72% of containers live for less than five minutes, and the Read More..

In 2021, the Nigerian government blocked Twitter, resulting in the launch of Koo, an Indian microblogging platform that was little known outside of India. This was a significant achievement for Koo, which had begun with a focus on Indian languages and a governmentfriendly stance. It was also a victory for the Indian government, which had praised another locally developed technology, BharOS, for taking on Google. However, Indias push for digital sovereignty will have ramifications for the countrys 1.4 billion people, including increased state surveillance and restrictions on online freedoms. India is the worlds second largest smartphone market and has some of the most social media users, but big tech firms have been increasingly targeted by the government. Read More..
