The Future of Work Will Be Bootstrapped


Listen Later

In our first episode of this series on jobtech platforms and the future of work, we argued that the future of work is a tech-enabled portfolio of work. 


But what does a portfolio of work really look like? And what happens next? 


We know we need to create more formal jobs in Africa, and we need to boost the productivity of the informal sector. But how do we get there? 


Considering the context of the markets in question, the future of work isn’t going to be designed or endowed; it’s going to be bootstrapped.
