Presight Extends Its Digital Transformation Collaborations Across Three African Nations

Presight, a leading AI company designing intelligent systems for governments and critical infrastructure, has partnered with Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, and Gabon through separate Memoranda of Understanding to accelerate their national digital transformation efforts.

Presight’s new agreements with Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, and Gabon further extend its operations across Africa.

The collaborations will see Presight working with national institutions to implement intelligent digital systems that combine data, analytics, and automation, enhancing public sector efficiency and service delivery.

In Côte d’Ivoire, the company strengthened its partnership with the government through two MoUs with the Ministry of Digital Transition and Digitization and the Ministry of State, Public Services and Modernization of the Administration. These agreements will support the creation of advanced digital platforms to improve data management, agency coordination, and overall public administration efficiency, while advancing Côte d’Ivoire’s ambition to become a regional digital innovation hub.

Anne Désirée Ouloto, Minister of State, Public Services, and Modernization of the Administration of Côte d’Ivoire, said “This strategic collaboration marks a critical turning point in the digital transformation of our public administration, laying the foundation for a long-term partnership that’s decisively future-focused. With this alliance, Côte d’Ivoire is poised to become the leading hub for Artificial Intelligence and tech innovation across West Africa. We are deeply grateful for Presight’s exceptional dedication to sharing its cutting-edge technological expertise. Together, we are building a modern, data-driven, and citizen-centric administration – one that exemplifies high performance, transparency, and forward-thinking governance.”

Presight has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Burkina Faso’s Ministry of Digital Transition, Posts, and Electronic Communications to support the country’s digital transformation agenda and strengthen its national digital infrastructure. The collaboration will focus on deploying AI-powered systems to enhance public service delivery, improve financial transparency and treasury management, and establish a robust cybersecurity framework to safeguard critical national systems.

The initiative will also promote local innovation and skills development through an AI Expert Factory for training engineers and the Ouaga Granit Valley Centre, a national hub intended to accelerate the growth of Burkina Faso’s AI startup ecosystem.

Dr Aminata Zerbo/Sabane, Minister of Digital Transition, Posts and Electronic Communications of Burkina Faso, noted, “Presight’s leadership in AI make them an ideal partner to support our vision of digital sovereignty. This collaboration reflects Burkina Faso’s commitment to building a secure, inclusive, and innovation-driven digital future that empowers citizens, strengthens institutions, and unlocks new economic opportunities.”

Most recently, in February 2026, Presight signed an MoU with the Government of Gabon, renewing its existing agreement with the Ministry of Digital Economy and Innovation. The renewed partnership underscores their shared commitment to advancing the country’s digital transformation and modernizing public services through artificial intelligence.

Dr. Adel Alsharji, Chief Operating Officer of Presight, highlighted the growing role of artificial intelligence in government operations across Africa.

“Across Africa, governments are increasingly exploring how artificial intelligence can support economic development, strengthen institutions, and modernize public services. At Presight, our focus is on designing and deploying intelligent systems that integrate data, automation, and advanced analytics directly into the operational environments governments rely on every day. Our partnerships with these governments across Africa reflect a shared ambition to build national digital platforms that operate at scale, strengthen institutional capability, and enable faster, more informed decision-making across government systems. By working closely with our partners, we aim to support long-term digital transformation that strengthens institutions and delivers tangible benefits for citizens,” he said.

The agreements build on Presight’s expanding presence in Africa, where it has been advancing AI and digital transformation initiatives with governments and institutions.

The company is also implementing partnerships, pilot programs, and digital innovation initiatives in markets such as Angola, Republic of Congo, Gambia, Mauritius, Seychelles, Tanzania, Zambia, and Uganda.

This expansion coincides with growing global investment in AI across Africa. The African Development Bank Group and UNDP recently launched a $10 billion program to accelerate responsible AI adoption and inclusive digital growth, following the UAE’s 2025 AI for Development initiative, which committed $1 billion to AI projects in African countries.

Through its expanding network of partnerships and initiatives across Africa, Presight continues to drive its mission of creating intelligent systems that enable governments to modernize infrastructure, strengthen institutions, and build resilient, future-ready societies.
