Inception, a G42 company that provides AI solutions, has entered a strategic partnership with McKinsey & Company aimed at enhancing board and executive effectiveness through the power of AI.
Abu Dhabi-based Inception is a company that designs and develops AI-powered products and enterprise business solutions. Key products in its portfolio include (In)Alpha, which supports investment decisions; (In)Climate, a meteorological platform; (In)Energy, a platform that helps optimise upstream and downstream energy operations; and (In)Business Suite, a set of products for procurement, human capital, business processes, customer experience and generative AI.
The partnership brings together Inception’s AI applications with McKinsey & Company’s expertise in strategic and organisational consulting. McKinsey will also bring in the deep AI domain expertise of QuantumBlack, its AI arm, which has a proven record of deploying and scaling AI solutions across industries.
Ashish Koshy, CEO of Inception, said: “Our collaboration with McKinsey will boost our capabilities in delivering enterprise AI solutions that transform how top leadership executives in the public and private sector lead, decide, and act. Together, we will develop and deploy world-class enterprise AI products that drive measurable value, combining deep strategic insight with world-class AI capabilities to empower leaders and organisations for the future.”
The partnership will centre on four key areas: enhancing executive effectiveness, unlocking enterprise value from AI, enabling secure sovereign AI solutions, and helping organisations accelerate adoption while managing risks.
“Together with Inception, we are excited to help our clients and their leaders unlock the real potential of AI. The stakes for CEOs and boards to move with pace and strategic precision have never been higher,” said Gassan Al-Kibsi, chair of the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, and Turkey at McKinsey & Company.
Ben Ellencweig, McKinsey senior partner and global leader of QuantumBlack’s alliances and acquisitions, added: “AI is defining the trajectory of every industry. This partnership helps our clients not only survive the shift but drive it. Together with Inception, we are helping boards and the executives enhance their effectiveness with the power of AI to rewire their business for the future.”
