Innovare Limited, a leading management consulting and technology solutions provider, today announced a landmark governance and management systems implementation partnership with Izwe Africa, a licensed pan-African financial services provider.

Under the new partnership, Innovare will design, deploy, and scale a custom Integrated Management System (IMS) that builds on Izwe’s existing ISO/IEC 27001-certified Information Security Management System (ISMS) and adds an Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS) and Privacy Information Management Systems (PIMS)to accelerate Izwe Africa’s digital transformation goals.

The multi-phase implementation aligns with ISO/IEC 42001, ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27701 standards to strengthen Izwe Africa’s processes and management capability through an effective risk-based approach, addressing privacy and data governance and the responsible development of AI solutions.

Commenting on the partnership, Nii Djan Mensah, Chief Executive Officer of Innovare Limited, said: “The partnership comes at a critical time as industries increasingly look toward secure, mature AI platforms with proper governance structures to combat rising risks, protect privacy, control operational costs and manage fragmented business data.” 

Both companies are committed to high standards of security, privacy and data governance, and the partnership is designed to ensure that AI at Izwe is used responsibly, securely and with clear accountability.
