How could artificial intelligence help expand access to quality healthcare, education and finance across Africa? The Qubit Hub is set up to explore questions like these. Our new pan-African AI hub aims to contribute to discussions, literature, and experiments on AI advancement to benefit people and communities.

We believe Africa's diverse needs offer fertile ground for innovation. Challenges and unique perspectives can spark creative solutions. By bringing together diverse experts across sectors to brainstorm and experiment, we hope to catalyze AI progress centered on economic inclusion, sustainable agriculture, and responsible growth.

Qubit Africa is an open forum for asking questions, testing ideas and mapping uncharted territory. We focus on research that informs AI application, convenings that inspire fresh thinking, and pilots that roadtest new systems. Join our community of curious changeseekers today!
