How do we work Responsibly?
Our values guide everything we do as an organization and the choices we make. They inform both our long-term strategy as a firm and the way we serve our clients on a daily basis. We are committed to building a stronger institution that has long-term sustainability and enduring value in Africa and our partners. We hold ourselves to high standards of environmental and social responsibility. We are continually innovating our practices to ensure we meet—and exceed—these expectations. As participants in the United Nations Global Compact, we support the Ten Principles on human rights, labor, environment, and anticorruption.
What Present and Future Does AI-Group Inc. propose?
AI-Group Inc. is ambitious. The AI-Group Inc. is a big challenge (which has to be periodically catalyzed to address the continent’s gaps in meeting with the expectations of prevailing fourth industrial revolution). But we also feel that it is now or never, where women and youths are driving the vehicle of Africa’s Destiny. AI-Group Inc. is convinced that to achieve innovative impact and collaboration, we have to think bold.
AI-Group Inc. has a pan African approach with the aim to help create synergies between African economies through contemporary industry sector value chains, so that each of Africa’s private sectors finds a purpose and play their unique role in a continent-wide hub, as a center of expertise for some key sectors, as well as a gateway for international investment, intra-Africa collaboration, and as an industrial center of excellence.
AI-Group Inc. wants to enable transmission between older and younger generations of entrepreneurs and industrialists, in order for the leaders of today to inspire the emerging leaders of today and the leaders of tomorrow.
AI-Group Inc. is outcome-driven. What matters is our progress towards the ultimate goal of a united Africa benefiting from a shared vision of a coordinated infrastructure and development, recognized as a land of opportunity and as a stimulus for Africa’s economic growth.

How does AI-Group Quarterlies accept article submission?
While the majority of our articles will be written and designed by AI-Group Partners, Associates, consultants and alumni (from our flagships), we will also accept submissions from external industry thought leaders and practitioners.

For external contributors, we also attach weight to work that sheds light on topics that are a priority for our firm and to submissions from recognized leaders in their field. This priority is designated to promote Africa Industrialization, no doubt, and this is not negotiable.
