Akon est un homme aux multiples talents, dont le curriculum vitae comprend tout, du chant au rap en passant par la production. Ce que peu de gens peuvent réaliser, cependant, c'est qu'il est aussi un vrai entrepreneur. En fait, Akon vient d'obtenir 6 milliards de dollars (!) Pour construire une ville alimentée par des crypto-monnaies (!!) au Sénégal (!!!), et il l'appelle Akon City (!!!!). Pas vraiment.
Comme nous l’avions signalé plus tôt cette année, l’artiste sénégalo-américain a conclu un partenariat avec la société de tourisme publique du pays africain pour créer une ville touristique entièrement durable. Aujourd'hui, Akon a donné le coup d'envoi au développement de la ville en concluant un contrat de 6 milliards de dollars avec la société d'ingénierie et de conseil américaine KE International.
Le développement d'Akon City sera divisé en plusieurs phases, la première phase se concentrant sur la construction de routes, d'une école, d'un poste de police, d'une centrale électrique, d'une déchetterie, d'un hôpital et d'un centre commercial d'ici la fin de 2023. La deuxième phase commencera l'année suivante et se concentrera sur la courtisation des entreprises pour qu'elles fonctionnent avec la propre crypto-monnaie AKOIN d'Akon. Au moment où elle sera terminée en 2030, Akon City comprendra également des parcs, des universités, un stade et un complexe industriel.
En plus d'une économie entièrement basée sur la crypto-monnaie, Akon City fonctionnera à 100% d'énergie renouvelable. En fait, Akon lui-même est fortement impliqué dans l'apport d'énergie hors réseau à l'ensemble du contenu grâce à son initiative Akon Lighting Africa.
