Italy, India, Kenya sign landmark AI cooperation agreement to advance development in Africa

Italy, India, and Kenya have entered into a strategic trilateral partnership to co-design and deploy scalable, sovereign AI solutions across Africa. This collaboration, announced during the AI Impact Summit 2026, aims to implement voice-enabled AI technologies in sectors such as agriculture, health, education, and public services, with a focus on low-connectivity environments and local languages. The initiative leverages the G7-endorsed AI Hub for Sustainable Development and aligns with Italy’s Mattei Plan, uniting India’s innovation expertise, Kenya’s on-the-ground ecosystem, and Italy’s industrial partnerships to build Africa-led AI infrastructure. A key goal is to establish 100 AI diffusion pathways by 2030 to ensure trusted and contextual AI adoption across the continent.
