Agentic AI Conference

Agentic AI refers to autonomous systems capable of perceiving goals, reasoning through complex environments, and executing tasks without constant human input.
This paradigm shift is already being embraced by global technology leaders — from OpenAI’s GPTs and Microsoft Copilot Studio to Google’s Gemini Agents and emerging orchestration frameworks like LangChain, CrewAI, and AutoGPT.

Africa’s businesses and governments cannot afford to sit out this revolution. The question is no longer “What can AI generate?” but “What can AI autonomously achieve — responsibly, safely, and at scale?”

Who Will Attend

  • C-Suite & Decision-Makers — CEOs, CIOs, CTOs, Chief AI Officers
  • Developers & Data Scientists — engineers building next-gen AI systems
  • Enterprise Innovators — digital transformation leaders
  • Government & Regulators — policy shapers and AI governance experts
  • Investors & VCs — funding frontier technologies
  • Academia & Researchers — AI scientists and thought leaders

Overview

Artificial Intelligence has entered its next frontier — the agentic era.
After years of breakthroughs in generative AI, we now stand at the dawn of AI systems that act, reason, and collaborate autonomously. This transformation is redefining how industries operate — from banking and healthcare to public governance and education.

The Agentic AI Conference Africa 2025 will be the continent’s first dedicated platform exploring how autonomous AI agents can drive productivity, innovation, and inclusion across African enterprises and societies.

Hosted by ML Africa, this conference builds on six successful editions of the AI Conference Africa, evolving into a future-oriented summit for the next phase of intelligent automation — agentic intelligence
