Kearney’s GSLI 2021: Mauritius as the only African country to rank on the ‘Digital Resonance’ Index
Article Published on July 6, 2021
The Global Services Location Index (GSLI) aims at providing an overview of emerging digital hubs across 60 countries through four major
categories namely financial attractiveness, people skills and availability, business environment, and digital resonance category. The recent 27th
position – globally - achieved by Mauritius on the GSLI is evidence of the Government’s effort to promote the country as a reliable tech hub with
a friendly business climate. With this ranking, Mauritius stands second in Africa and maintains the 1st place in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Furthermore, Mauritius has achieved a landmark position as the only African country to be in the list of top 25 nations in the Digital Resonance
category of the latest GSLI. The ‘digital resonance’ metric introduced by Kearney in 2019 widens the scope of research in the tech-service sector.The objective of this new dimension is to score countries across a multitude of factors such as digital skills of the labour force, digital outputs,
the amount of corporate activity, legal protections of intellectual property, and other key elements of business activity in the digital age.
