Exploring The Intersection Of Culture And Technology
Technology and culture go hand in hand in today’s world. We get more and more exposed to TV shows, movies, and entertainment all thanks to technology.
In view of this, we decided to start a new section on Tech Nova called “Culture”. We’ll be publishing more articles that look at different industries in Ghana and Africa including video games, streaming platforms, and other topics related to modern culture.
You can read about eSports and Ghana’s involvement, why Netflix might increase its fees in Ghana in the coming months, and if Ghana’s movie industry is doing enough to embrace local streaming platforms to promote their TV shows and movies.
The new section is on our website under “Culture”.
On to this week’s news:
