The certifications are more than just a symbol of compliance; they are a clear sign of TD Africa's commitment to building digital resilience in Africa with trust and accountability at its core.

She stated, "Our role is to ensure Africa is prepared to harness [AI's] limitless opportunities responsibly," emphasizing that AI holds great potential for sectors like finance, healthcare, and agriculture.

The ISO 42001 is the world’s first governance framework for the ethical and transparent deployment of AI, ensuring solutions align with global best practices. 

Meanwhile, ISO 27701 guarantees that TD Africa handles personal data with the highest level of integrity and security, an essential measure in an age where data privacy is a constant concern.

For nearly three decades, TD Africa has been a catalyst for Africa’s digital growth. Beyond these new certifications, the company has invested in robust infrastructure and distribution systems spanning 47 African countries. Its TecHerdemy program has also helped empower over 400 women in technology, fostering inclusive digital growth.

These certifications,

"This achievement is a milestone for Africa," Mrs. Ekeh stressing that "The global AI conversation cannot be left to Silicon Valley or Beijing alone. Lagos, Nairobi, Accra, Kigali, and Johannesburg must also have a strong voice."

With this bold move, TD Africa, 
ITREALMS has reaffirmed its leadership in technology distribution and signaled a new era where Africa plays a decisive role in the global digital renaissance.
