Abstract

The Digital Wall is the divide between digital adoption and the absence of this tremendous developing factor, which we can see in the included graph, where the point dividing a country’s takeoff toward development stagnates on the line of a $20,000 per capita income, and how this has a complete impact on a nation’s digital adoption. At the same time, there is a factor that encases all economies that are not giving the digital leap, which is stagnation itself, while on the other side of the wall, exponential growth is observed, a kind of catapult that projects countries to wealth once they decide to progress in the new technological age.
