Verraki to Host Free Webinar on How African Businesses Can Start and Scale AI

Verraki, a leading business and technology solutions firm focused on Africa, will be hosting a high-impact webinar titled “From Idea to Action: How African Businesses Can Start and Scale AI Initiatives”.
The virtual event will take place on Thursday, June 19th, 2025, at 3:30 PM WAT and is open to professionals, business leaders, tech teams, and innovation-focused organisations looking to move beyond AI conversations into real-world application.
Global and African Experts to Lead Conversation
The keynote address will be delivered by Randy McGraw, Chief Commercial Officer at Sertis, Thailand, a global AI consultancy and member of Andersen Consulting. With over 20 years of experience across the U.S., Japan, and Southeast Asia, McGraw will present on:
- The risks of public AI models and the need for private LLMs (Large Language Models)
- How organisations can implement AI responsibly and at scale
- Key lessons from a case study with ThaiBank, showing impact on sales, staff productivity, and customer satisfaction
Following the keynote, there will be a fireside chat between Kehinde Banasko, CEO of Skilladder AI, and Niyi Yusuf, Managing Partner at Verraki. Banasko will discuss Skilladder’s journey using AI to tackle workforce and recruitment challenges across Africa, highlighting adoption trends, results, and what the future holds for business-led AI solutions.
Why This Matters
AI adoption in Africa is still largely theoretical for many organisations. This webinar is designed to bridge the gap between strategic interest and practical action, providing attendees with insights into implementation pathways, hurdles, and returns.
Business leaders attending will walk away with a clearer understanding of how to assess readiness, deploy AI use cases, and scale sustainably.

The webinar is free, but registration is required.
