“Humans at the Core of AI Evolution” — Peter Denenberg, Senior Software Engineer, Google Gemini

At its heart, the rise of large language models is not about technology taking over — it’s about co-evolution. It’s a collaboration between humans and machines, where people will always remain central.

Humans bring what no algorithm can: a lived connection to the world. We know right from wrong, we know context, we know when to push forward and when to pull back. That makes us the referees, the regulators, and the guardians of responsible progress.

This perspective has shaped conversations at past IFACL events, and it will take center stage again at the upcoming IFACL in New York, USA, themed:
“Bridging Continents, Building Futures: Leadership for a Connected World.”

Attend this year’s IFACL and be part of a transformative gathering of global leaders, innovators, and change-makers.

Diaspora Power & Global Impact: Uniting Africa and the Caribbean for a Shared Future

From bustling global cities to local community initiatives, the African and Caribbean diaspora stands as a force of transformation — driving progress, breaking barriers, and amplifying the potential of our nations worldwide.

The International Forum on African Caribbean Leadership (IFACL) 2025 is a celebration of this dynamic influence. In business, education, technology, and governance, diaspora leaders are redefining the future — channeling their skills, investments, and innovations back into the heartbeat of their homelands.

Every effort counts. Every enterprise launched, policy influenced, and idea shared by our diaspora strengthens the bridge between continents, paving the way for shared growth and prosperity. This is the essence of collective leadership — where individual achievements spark a chain of transformation that reaches millions.

At IFACL 2025, we gather to recognise these trailblazers, share game-changing solutions, and renew our commitment to the economic rise and global influence of African-Caribbean nations.

The call is simple yet powerful: No matter where we are in the world, our heritage unites us, our vision guides us, and our collective strength will shape the future.

Zambia’s Energy Frontier & the Power of Afro-Caribbean Collaboration

At a time when Africa and the Caribbean are increasingly seeking collaborative pathways for sustainable growth, leaders like Engineer Victor Benjamin Mapani, Managing Director of Zambia’s National Utility (Zesco Limited), are championing bold opportunities that bridge investment and innovation.

Speaking at the African Caribbean Leadership Forum, Engr. Mapani, highlighted Zambia’s vast, untapped energy potential—from solar and hydro to wind. With feasibility studies already conducted and investment-ready sites identified, Zambia presents a strong case for energy partnerships that could benefit both African and Caribbean stakeholders.

These energy opportunities are not just about power—they’re about possibility. The demand for clean, renewable energy in both regions presents a unique moment for cross-regional investment, technology exchange, and joint ventures. From solar revolutions in Zambia to sustainability initiatives in the Caribbean, shared challenges are now unlocking shared solutions.
