Antigua and Barbuda’s high‑tech exports have remained negligible over the 13‑year span covered by World Bank data, registering a value of 0.00 in the latest 2025 observation, which places the nation at 154th globally. The only departure from zero occurred in 2018, when the share of high‑tech exports briefly rose to an all‑time peak of 0.61, after which the series reverted to a trough of 0.00 in 2025. This pattern contrasts with the modest but positive performance of peers such as the Maldives, which posted 0.02, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, which recorded 0.08 during the same period. The persistent absence of high‑technology output suggests limited participation in global value chains that rely on advanced manufacturing or services. Unless substantial investment in research, development and skilled labour is undertaken, the trajectory is likely to remain flat, keeping Antigua and Barbuda at the lower end of the high‑tech export spectrum.
