StratIQ Consult : Empowering businesses by driving strategic AI & analytics across Africa

In an era where data drives every successful business decision, a new Accra-based consultancy is making waves across Africa by helping organizations turn information overload into strategic clarity. StratIQ Consult, founded by John Kingsford Amissah, specializes in strategic analytics, AI and consulting, with a mission to empower African businesses to make confident, data-informed decisions. The firm addresses a critical gap in the market: helping organizations understand not just what happened in their business, but why it happened and what they should do next.

From data to direction

“In the next 3 to 5 years, the role of the Data Analyst/Scientist will become as indispensable to organizational structure as that of the Accountant,” says John Kingsford. “Just as financial clarity is essential to business sustainability, data clarity will be central to strategic decision-making, operational efficiency, and innovation.”

This vision drives StratIQ’s unique approach, which the company calls “The StratIQ Prism.” Unlike traditional consultancies that simply deliver reports, StratIQ takes clients on a comprehensive journey from investigation through design to execution. The firm begins by examining stakeholder feedback, assessing data systems, and evaluating operations to uncover hidden inefficiencies and misaligned performance indicators. They then design customized solutions that align with each organization’s strategic goals and brand identity, before implementing these solutions with precision and adaptability.

Comprehensive solutions for modern challenges

StratIQ’s service portfolio spans the full spectrum of AI and business analytics needs. The firm offers strategic advisory and data consultation, helping organizations build governance frameworks and define their analytics vision. Their business intelligence solutions transform raw data into intuitive dashboards and real-time visibility for decision-makers.

For financial health, StratIQ provides analytics that help businesses forecast revenue, optimize costs, and assess profitability. Their HR and workforce analytics enable organizations to understand employee retention, productivity, and engagement trends. The firm also offers marketing analytics to decode audience behavior and track campaign performance, as well as AI-powered workflow automation to improve operational efficiency.

Recognizing the growing importance of digital security, StratIQ has expanded its offerings to include cybersecurity and risk solutions, helping organizations safeguard their data and build resilience against evolving threats.

Building capacity, not just delivering reports

What sets StratIQ apart is its commitment to knowledge transfer. Beyond consulting projects, the firm offers training programs designed to build internal capacity and foster a culture of data literacy within organizations. From corporate workshops to custom analytics bootcamps, these programs ensure that organizations can sustain transformation long after StratIQ’s engagement ends.

The podcast and educational wing

StratIQ’s impact extends beyond client work. The company runs two podcast series: “The Insight Room,” which features conversations on analytics’ role in business strategy and leadership, and ‘Girls-In-Analytics’, an initiative aimed at empowering women to pursue careers in analytics and data science. The firm also hosts webinar sessions for undergraduate and postgraduate students globally, providing mentorship and practical insights to the next generation of analytics professionals.

A vision for Africa

StratIQ Consult operates with a clear vision: to become Africa’s leading analytics-driven advisory firm, empowering organizations to make bold, intelligent decisions that drive sustainable growth and transformation. The company’s core values of excellence, integrity, innovation, diversity, and teamwork guide every engagement. As African businesses navigate increasingly complex markets, the need for AI and data-driven decision-making has never been greater. StratIQ Consult stands ready to help organizations across the continent unlock clarity from complexity, transforming data into strategic direction and enabling leaders to act with confidence and purpose.
