Botswana urged to adapt knowledge economy

This week, at the ‘Open Data Open Science’ national forum held in Gaborone, principal researcher and country managing partner at Joint Minds Consult (JMC), Patrick Molutsi said knowledge is a key commodity and a defining source of wealth in a knowledge economy and society.

He said less developed economies are characterised by lower levels of utilisation of information to produce knowledge and intellectual property to drive their development.
