Yango Group Launches Yango Tech in Africa: Scaling AI and Digital Infrastructure

The Yango Group has announced the launch of Yango Tech in Africa, expanding the company’s presence in the region with a portfolio of artificial intelligence (AI) and digital infrastructure solutions for businesses, city authorities and public-sector organisations.

The expansion marks Yango Group’s move beyond consumer-facing services in Africa into B2B technology and AI implementations. Yango Tech will focus on helping organisations automate operations, modernise infrastructure and adopt AI tools across sectors including mobility, healthcare, financial services and retail.

According to McKinsey consulting, generative AI could unlock between $61 billion and $103 billion in annual economic value across Africa, while more than 40% of organisations on the continent are already experimenting with or implementing AI solutions.

At the same time, demand for digital infrastructure and enterprise technologies continues to grow across African markets.

GSMA estimates that the mobile sector contributed $220 billion to Africa’s economy in 2024 and could reach $270 billion by 2030 as digital services and enterprise technologies expand.

Yango Tech’s African portfolio includes generative AI adoption programmes, smart city technologies, healthcare digitalisation solutions and platforms for financial services and electronic commerce.

The company helps enterprises and public-sector organisations identify where AI can deliver measurable business value, develop implementation roadmaps, assess return on investment and integrate AI tools into daily operations.

The offering also includes deployment support, AI governance frameworks and training programmes for executives and operational teams.

“African markets are showing growing demand for automation, infrastructure modernisation and practical AI applications,” says Yango Group chief business officer Adeniyi Adebayo. “Yango Tech’s goal is to help organisations implement technology in ways that improve operational efficiency and support long-term digital transformation.”

In Central Asia, Yango Tech has already successfully launched mobility as a service projects, including real-time ambulance tracking systems designed to improve emergency response coordination and visibility for patients and dispatch centres.

The company has already begun deployment in Mozambique and South Africa, with projects spanning mobility, healthcare and electronic commerce – marking the first step in a broader expansion across the continent.
