AUI Global Signs MoU with Konza Technopolis for AI Certification

AUI Global and the Konza Technopolis Development Authority (KoTDA) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to offer AI executive certification programs. The partnership aims to build local AI capacity and expertise at Kenya's flagship technology hub. Nairobi has been recognized as a leading Artificial Intelligence hub in Africa, securing the 4th position in the Counterpoint Research 2026 Africa AI Cities Index. The report highlights the city's progress in AI adoption and development. However, a new report from Smartcomply warns that East Africa's rapid digital growth is outpacing cybersecurity defenses, creating a significant execution gap that leads to substantial financial losses. Together, these developments illustrate Kenya's advancing position in the AI sector while highlighting remaining challenges in digital infrastructure and security.
