What We Do

For African Governments

We work with governments who seek to expand their AI-enabled services exports. We assist with research-based consultation, and we help coordinate with the digital services export industry, development partner organisations, and skilling institutions for job readiness.

For Global Firms

We work with Global Business Services firms in search of new delivery locations in Africa. We conduct research into cost structures, labour pools, infrastructure, real estate, local governance, and regulations. And we can provide connections to government counterparts and relevant development partners. We can assist with impact sourcing portfolios (see country profiles).

For Int. Development Partners

We work with development partners and foundations in conducting research into the future of work in Africa’s AI-enabled services industries. We draft and publish our findings for policy makers, an academic readership, and for a wider public. We also advise development partners directly, e.g. in identifying their own roles in the AI training landscape in partner countries (if you are interested in this aspect, check our online course).

For Research Institutions

We work with global think tanks, universities, and foundations on conducting research into the future of work in Africa. We submit all our work to academic peer review. Where possible we make our publications freely accessible online. This link to academia helps us apply new research methods and makes our work transparent. This makes it easy for others to build on our findings (see publications).

For Industry Associations

We work with African industry associations who seek to consolidate the local ecosystem in the AI-enabled services export sector. We help to coordinate with incoming investors (see our Rwanda case study).
