Digital Economy and Economic Growth in Cameroon Joseph Herman Tiona Wamba

The objective of this book is to provide a new vision to understand the digital economy as a lever of economic growth. This concept is now very popular and, compared to the ordinary economy, is the "manna" that some countries need to escape from poverty. Our approach consisted of putting forward research proposals based on a theoretical review. We then collected data from four ICT companies. At the end of the analysis, we found a substantial impact of ICT on indicators such as productivity and employment rate. However, for the success of such an enterprise, the mobilization of financial, logistical, socio-economic and even educational means is necessary. Also, for the development to follow, the public authority should put in place measures to accompany this phenomenon as profitable as it is improving the economic activity without forgetting the stakes, challenges and setbacks that it involves.
