[Arguable] Factories or Fiber? What Will Actually Make Developing Countries Rich?

from Network Capital · host Network Capital

For decades, the classic path to prosperity seemed clear: build factories, create jobs, grow exports, and lift millions out of poverty. But in a world shaped by AI, automation, and the internet, that model no longer feels so certain.We debate whether developing countries should still bet on manufacturing, or whether services offer a faster and more realistic route to growth. Along the way, we explore jobs, inequality, education, globalization, and whether the future belongs to industrial powerhouses or digitally connected economies.
