Ghana leads Africa’s additive manufacturing network

7, GNA – Ghana is to become the first operational node of a continental manufacturing network designed to cut industrial downtime caused by delays in sourcing critical replacement parts.

As the first node of the ADAM Network, Ghana has the opportunity to model what is possible for every node that follows on the continent, and to build genuine manufacturing capability,” he said.‎‎‎The initiative also has implications for intra-African trade under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), by enabling the production and movement of industrial components, engineering services and digital manufacturing assets between African markets.
