Build an AI Agency That Serves
Global Clients From Africa.
A practitioner's intensive for Nigerian and African entrepreneurs ready to build real AI service businesses, with paying clients, structured pricing, and the playbook to expand internationally.
Most people interested in AI agencies have the same four sticking points.
This course was built around solving exactly these.
You don't know how to position yourself
Everyone is "doing AI." Without a specific niche and a defensible angle, you're competing on price before you've even started.
You don't know what to charge or why
Most founders underprice because they're guessing. Pricing without a framework is just fear with a number attached.
You can't get past the first client
No portfolio, no case studies, no referrals. The first paying client feels impossible to close without already having one.
You're not sure your location is a disadvantage
Operating from Nigeria or West Africa and trying to serve UK and US clients. You wonder if that automatically puts you at a discount.
Four types of founders. One course that serves all of them.
Your background determines your path through the technical modules, not whether you belong here.
The Orchestrator
Business, law, finance, or management background. You sell, manage, and deliver outcomes. A contractor builds the technical layer. Your edge is that you speak the client's language better than any developer ever will.
The No-Code Builder
Strong digital literacy, no coding required. You'll personally build automations using Make.com, Voiceflow, and Zapier. You can prototype a client solution in 48 hours without waiting for anyone.
The Domain Expert Packager
Healthcare, logistics, real estate, agriculture. Your industry knowledge is the product. The AI is the delivery mechanism. Nobody can replicate what you know about your sector.
The Technical Builder
Software, data, or engineering background. You can build the systems. Your gaps are commercial: pricing, positioning, sales, and client management. This course fills exactly those gaps.
Operating from Africa is not a liability. Properly leveraged, it's a structural competitive edge.
Lower operational costs
Than UK and US equivalents. Same service. Higher margin. The cost structure you're born into is your moat.
Nigerians want to learn AI
KPMG's 2025 global study puts Nigeria among the highest globally for AI adoption intent and trust.
YoY AI adoption growth
Nigeria posted the fastest year-on-year AI adoption growth in a 64-country dataset in 2025. The window is open right now.
UK SMBs. Your first export market.
99.2% are small businesses. English-speaking. GMT-aligned. Completely reachable from Lagos from Month 7.
By Day 2, you will completely master our in-house client acquisition template, the exact system the Coursus team has used for years. Not notes.
This is a working session. Every module produces something you can use immediately.
A defensible niche statement that passes the 10-second test with a non-technical prospect.
A full pricing model with Micro, Small, Medium, and Large tiers and the logic to defend every number.
A first-client acquisition system using the Show-Don't-Tell demo method that removes the portfolio requirement.
A 12-month financial roadmap with conservative and aggressive scenarios, break-even calculation, and hiring timeline.
A complete SOP document covering delivery, QA, client communication protocols, and churn prevention.
Legal templates included: MSA, SOW, NDA, and P&L model, all Nigeria-law compliant and ready to use.
A vetted three-phase geographic expansion plan from Nigerian SMBs to UK clients to US markets.
A technology stack decision matched to your founder model, no expensive guesswork about tools.
8 modules. Two days. Everything you need to launch.
Pre-reading materials for all 8 modules are distributed one week before the live sessions. You arrive prepared. The live sessions are working time.
What participants say.
"I came in as a healthcare administrator with zero technical background. By Day 2 I had a niche, a pricing model, and a working demo for a clinic client I'd been avoiding pitching. Closed them two weeks after the cohort."
"The pricing module alone was worth it. I'd been charging ₦150K for projects I now invoice at ₦1.2M. Same work. Different framing. I had no idea how badly I was underselling."
"I'm a software engineer. I thought I'd breeze through the tech modules. What hit me was the sales section. I had no framework for pricing, pitching, or closing. That's what I came away with."
"I arrived in the UK stressed about balancing survival and second-semester tuition. Using the automated outreach framework from this academy, I launched my AI agency and landed two logistics clients within 6 weeks. I am comfortably funding my MSc now without doing grueling odd jobs."
"Balancing lectures with UK living costs is no joke, but setting up my AI agency changed everything. The blueprints helped me confidently pitch and close a £1,500/month retainer with an e-commerce brand. My MSc fees are completely covered, and I'm building a scalable business."
Anabel Duberry teaches Artificial Intelligence and Data-Driven Decision Making at University College London's Department of Computer Science. Before UCL, she spent years building production AI systems for enterprise clients across the UK, from NLP pipelines for financial services firms to conversational AI for healthcare providers. She built real systems, saw what broke, and learned from it.
She created this programme after watching technically capable founders across Africa consistently undervalue their skills in global markets. Most already understood the tools. They needed the business architecture to wrap around them.

The gap between intent and execution is your market. Close it.
79% of organisations have already adopted AI agents. Only 14% have deployed them at scale. The implementation capability is what's missing, and it's what you'll be selling.
