Summary | Mamadou Dramé studied in Senegal, and was suprised by the archaism of his university administration system. He thus decided to work on the digitization of schools. Dramé created a social network for his school (called Asema) that provides students with job offers. In 2011, Dramé launched Web Corner, which is a forum specialized in the digitization of Senegalese education, and also founded Digital School Technologies. Finally, Dramé also created Africa School, an organization that distributes laptops and tablets to young Africans so they can learn programming, tomorrow's language.
