How emerging technology will revolutionize education | Mosobalaje Akinola | TEDxYabaStreet

Evolution in technology has changed the outlook of education in recent times and will continue to improve its landscape in the future. The advent of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, augmented reality and others have immense potential in redefining educational structures in the coming years. Akinola Mosobalaje is an experienced EdTech innovator, problem-solver, and leader with a background in information technology and education. He has experience in managing teams of various sizes, motivating them towards success, and developing potential into realized skill sets. Akinola never gives up on an opportunity to advance himself or others around him and is continuously challenging the status quo in the Nigerian educational system through viable tech solutions. This culminates in his 2019 appointment as the Nigerian representative for ICT University, USA (serving developing nations) and his EdTech innovation award by Adeyemi College of Education for giving the institution a pride of place on the global map through technology solutions.
Akinola's greatest passion is to see the integration of technologies with education in Nigeria and sub-Saharan Africa as a tool for sustainable development.
