Djibouti’s high‑tech exports have risen steadily from 0.92 in 2009 to 3.47 in 2025, placing the country at rank 111 globally and marking an all‑time peak for the series. This increase represents a more than threefold expansion over 16 years, outpacing the modest growth of regional peer Senegal, whose 2025 figure stood at 3.21, while remaining just below the performances of Seychelles (3.45) and Georgia (3.72). The upward trajectory reflects Djibouti’s strategic positioning as a logistics hub and recent investments in telecommunications infrastructure, which have attracted foreign firms seeking a foothold in the Horn of Africa. Nevertheless, the modest share of high‑tech output relative to more diversified economies suggests that further diversification of the industrial base and stronger linkages with research institutions will be essential to sustain the current momentum. Continued policy support for technology parks and skill development could accelerate growth and lift Djibouti into the top‑one‑hundred exporters in the coming years.
