Developing Markets technology systems integrator Cassava Technologies (Cassava) has announced the launch of Cassava AI, a new business unit dedicated to its AI activities. 

The move comes as Cassava continues to strengthen its position in the technology sector through strategic partnerships and innovative solutions.

Since the advent of Generative AI, Cassava has established strategic partnerships with industry giants such as Microsoft, Google, AWS, Anthropic, Oracle, Atlas AI, Cerebras, and Palo Alto Networks. 

These alliances enable Cassava to offer superior systems integration and support to enterprise customers in key international markets.

Cassava already provides a wide range of services, including Data Centres, Cloud, Cyber Security, Fibre Connectivity, and Renewable Energy to large multinational and local companies. 

The organization has trained and deployed over 200 of its 5000 employees to help customers adopt and utilize Generative AI services from the world’s leading vendors.

Headquartered in the UK, Cassava Technologies was founded by African entrepreneur Strive Masiyiwa and is backed by several leading global institutional investors. 

Hardy Pemhiwa, President and Group CEO, stated, “Cassava AI is headquartered in London and can already provide services in any of the 40-plus markets in Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America, where the Cassava Technologies group companies operate.”

Ahmed El Beheiry, a veteran technology and telecoms executive, will lead the new business unit. His extensive experience in the technology sector is expected to drive Cassava AI’s growth and success in delivering advanced AI solutions to its customers.
