The Mandela AI Hub is a pioneering social enterprise committed to advancing universal access to Artificial Intelligence across emerging markets, with a strong focus on Africa. Addressing the continent’s limited contribution—less than 2% to global AI research and innovation—and an SME adoption rate below 10%, the Hub works to bridge this digital divide through inclusive, ethical, and sustainable innovation. Guided by the values of justice, equity, reconciliation, and empowerment, and inspired by the enduring legacy of Nelson Mandela, the Hub seeks to ensure that AI becomes a transformative force for shared prosperity and social progress across Africa.
