Yesterday, the Ministry of Information, Communications and The Digital Economy launched Kenya's National Artificial Intelligence Strategy 2025-2030, marking a significant step forward in our nation's technological evolution. This strategy outlines Kenya’s ambition to become a leading hub for AI innovation across Africa, with a focus on driving sustainable development, economic growth, and social inclusion. For PR pros, this development opens exciting new frontiers in communications. According to the recently launched Glass House PR report, 46.43% of respondents have already integrated AI tools into their PR processes, but AI adoption across the industry remains in its early stages, with nearly 63% of PR agencies reporting limited or no integration. This presents an opportunity for PR practitioners to leverage AI tools that enhance storytelling, media monitoring, and digital engagement to build stronger narratives that resonate with both local and global audiences. The strategy aims to ensure that AI benefits all sectors by guiding the country in harnessing its transformative power. It also promotes ethical use and inclusivity.
