BRICS SUMMIT JOHANNESBURG

In order to deal with new technologies like AI and cryptocurrencies, BRICS nations must work together, Ramaphosa, center, said [PPIO]
 
BRICS countries are being urged to embrace the rapidly developing technologies which have carved a fourth industrial revolution but to do so in a fully collaborative approach.
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa says that while this digital revolution is the next threshold for BRICS countries, they should work together to ensure that emerging economies have a level playing field.

BRICS is no longer in need of proving to the naysayers its sustainability and viability. The time has now come for it to expand its membership and reach among emerging markets.
