Overview
Mali's high-tech exports stood at 10.56% in 2025, a rise of +5.20% from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 10.56% by 2025. Mali ranked 67th globally.
Mali’s high‑tech exports have risen from 3.21 in 2008 to 10.56 in 2025, placing the country 67th in the world. The upward trajectory accelerated after a deep trough of 1.24 in 2017, reaching an all‑time peak of 13.89 in 2021 before moderating to the current level. This pattern mirrors the modest but steady performance of peers such as Uruguay, which recorded 10.36 in the same year, suggesting that Mali is keeping pace with other emerging exporters of advanced products. The growth reflects expanding participation in global value chains, aided by modest improvements in digital infrastructure and targeted export incentives. However, the post‑peak slowdown indicates that sustaining higher export volumes will depend on further investment in research and development, diversification of product lines, and stronger trade facilitation. Continued policy focus on these areas could revive the upward momentum and push Mali’s high‑tech export share beyond the 2025 figure.
