Spain’s National Statistics Institute (INE) said on 19 October that the business turnover index for August rose 8.1% year on year after seasonal and calendar adjustment. The original series recorded a 9.1% annual increase, while the adjusted monthly rate was 1.8%.
The index covers non-financial industry, energy and water supply, trade, and market services. INE said all four sectors posted positive monthly changes; energy and water supply, sanitation and waste management rose 13.1% month on month in adjusted terms.
At the BUILD 2026 conference, Nigeria’s communications minister called for shared African compute infrastructure and cited power, broadband and chip access as constraints.
A 21 October enforcement notice tells public agencies to require equipment-lease registration certificates; it implements an August circular under existing law.
