AO Group to attend AI Expo Africa 2026 in Johannesburg
Pieter du Toit and Louis du Toit will represent AO Group at AI Expo Africa 2026 in Johannesburg on 28–29 October, exploring practical AI applications and connecting with industry peers.
AO Group will be attending AI Expo Africa 2026 on 28–29 October at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg, represented by Pieter du Toit, Group CEO, and Louis du Toit, Chief Technology Officer.
Now in its ninth edition, the conference and exhibition brings together businesses, technology providers, researchers and innovators from across Africa and internationally to explore the practical applications of artificial intelligence and intelligent automation.
For AO, the event is an opportunity to step outside its own development programmes, learn from others and see how the wider industry is approaching the challenges of putting AI to work.
Practical questions about AI
AO’s work in enterprise AI spans private AI deployments, enterprise knowledge systems, predictive analytics and automation. Across these areas, the focus is on solving clearly defined business problems, supported by appropriate data, sound engineering and measurable outcomes.
Pieter and Louis will be approaching the expo with that same curiosity: What problems are being solved? How are solutions performing in everyday operations? What does it take to make them reliable, secure and useful to the people working with them?
The 2026 programme includes discussions on responsible AI, security, data sovereignty and the transition from pilot projects into production. These are relevant conversations for organisations working to turn AI investment into lasting business value.
Connecting with the people building the industry
Alongside the technology, AO is looking forward to the conversations.
The event offers an opportunity to reconnect with friends, customers and industry colleagues, meet new teams and exchange perspectives with fellow technology companies working in the same space.
Learning from one another, comparing approaches and discussing shared challenges all contribute to a stronger technology community.
Anyone attending who would like to meet Pieter or Louis is welcome to get in touch ahead of the event.
