Global AI-as-a-Service (AIaaS) powerhouse Dyna.Ai has officially launched its operations in Nigeria, making a bold entry into Africa’s rapidly evolving fintech and digital innovation landscape.
The company’s entry was marked by an exclusive closed-door event — Nigeria Dyna Day — held on May 15, 2025, at Four Points by Sheraton, Lagos. Themed “AI Unleashed: Revolutionising Nigeria’s Financial Future,” the event brought together top executives from banking, fintech, telecoms, and government to engage in dialogue on the opportunities and challenges of deploying AI across financial services in Africa.
“There is no bigger country in Africa—this is where the momentum is,” said Tomas Skoumal, Chairman and Co-President of Dyna.Ai.
Skoumal underscored the company’s long-term vision: building local infrastructure, investing in Nigerian talent, and scaling innovations across Africa. More than a product rollout, Dyna.Ai is positioning itself as a strategic partner to Africa’s financial transformation.
Revolutionising Financial Services with AI
At the core of Dyna.Ai’s offering are proprietary tools such as Agent Studio, AvatarGPT (an AI-powered digital human for customer service), and VoiceGPT—a multilingual voice agent equipped with authentic Yoruba, Hausa, and Igbo accents. These tools are designed to reimagine customer service, marketing, collections, and HR functions for banks and financial institutions.
Live demonstrations showed how these technologies improve user engagement and elevate operational efficiency in the sector.
Aligning With National Digital Goals
Tokoni Peter Igoin, Special Assistant to the President on ICT Development and Digital Innovation, reiterated the Federal Government’s support for responsible innovation:
“Our approach to AI is rooted in transparency, data protection, and digital security.”
Lagos State Commissioner for Innovation, Science, and Technology, Olatunbosun Alake, revealed that the state will soon release AI deployment guidelines, a first step toward a regulated and ethical AI ecosystem in Nigeria.
“Unchecked AI isn’t just risky—it’s reputationally radioactive,” Alake cautioned, calling for collective responsibility in building trustworthy systems.
Why Nigeria, Why Now?
With its youthful population, high mobile penetration, and a fintech sector that has produced unicorns and billion-dollar valuations, Nigeria is seen as Africa’s gateway for tech adoption. For Dyna.Ai, this isn’t a speculative move—it’s a strategic investment in what Skoumal described as a “present reality.”
From an operational hub in Nigeria, Dyna.Ai plans to create jobs, enhance digital financial access, and shape a more inclusive AI-driven future for the continent.
