ADG To Steer Agentic Shift At Africa CISO Summit

Accelera Digital Group (ADG) is set to give a keynote at the Africa CISO Summit (2026). Featuring their CEO, Niral Patel as a speaker, ADG will be “bringing a clear perspective on the agentic shift. We are moving past the era of AI as a simple co-pilot and into a reality where autonomous operators execute complex SecOps workflows, from malware analysis to alert triage,” indicates Patel.

ADG, a private technology solutions company founded in 2021, operates across Africa and the Middle East with strategic locations in Nigeria, Ethiopia, Kenya, Dubai, and South Africa. They blend engineering with business insight, helping organisations that want to scale strategically.

Their work ranges from fintech, online gaming, to telecoms. Core offerings span cloud, data and AI, cybersecurity, and productivity solutions, including everything from SaaS to custom-built modern applications, transforming their partnership at the Summit from merely technical into the collaborative.

“Our participation in the Africa CISO Summit reflects ADG’s commitment to driving the next frontier of digital resilience across the continent. We have partnered because it represents the premier forum for leaders who understand that cybersecurity has moved beyond a functional necessity to become a core pillar of business strategy.

The Summit takes place on 11-12 March 2026. Themed Protect, Innovate Or Die: Cybersecurity As Africa’s Competitive Advantage, it targets Africa’s CISOs, CIOs, IT Security Directors and Managers, Risk Management & Compliance Officers, Data Protection Officers, Policy Makers an government officials. Attendees will gather insights into all things cybersecurity, particularly as triggered and resolved by, with and through AI, frameworks, to what gives the CISO sleepless nights.

ADG’s participation as a sponsor curates the experiences CISOs have encountered with agentic AI, bringing it home for the audience. “My goal is for attendees to leave our session with a fresh understanding of the leadership required to navigate this transition. Beyond the technology, it takes a PhD in people to align C-suite sponsorship with technical execution,” states Patel, adding that “I hope delegates walk away feeling equipped to evolve from technical managers into strategic value creators, leading their organisations into an era where autonomous security acts as a genuine business enabler,” he concludes.
