Kochi, March 22: The Kerala Council of the Indian Chamber of Commerce (ICC), in collaboration with the GETAI Foundation, has announced ‘AIfy Kerala’—a free initiative aimed at equipping MSMEs, startups, and small business owners across the state with practical, application-driven knowledge of artificial intelligence.
Scheduled for Saturday, March 28, 2026, from 9:30 AM to 1:00 PM, the programme will be held at the Kerala Startup Mission (KSUM) Integrated Startup Complex in Kochi. The initiative is designed to bridge the growing gap between rapid AI adoption by global enterprises and the limited, often unclear application of AI within small and medium businesses.
AIfy Kerala will deliver a structured, department-level framework enabling participants to understand and implement AI across key business functions such as sales, marketing, finance, human resources, and customer service. The focus will be on actionable insights, allowing attendees to directly apply learnings within their organisations.
Speaking on the initiative, Vinay James Kynadi, Founding Chairman, ICC Kerala Council, said, “This isn’t a conversation about the future—it’s a working session focused on the present. We want every business owner to leave with a clear understanding of where AI can create tangible impact in their day-to-day operations.”
Mia Kynadi, Co-Founder of GETAI Foundation, added, “GETAI Foundation was established to help underserved communities integrate into the AI-driven workforce and leverage technology for growth. Through free, structured, and action-oriented training programmes, we aim to make AI more accessible. Our collaboration with ICC Kerala Council is a significant step in that direction.”
The initiative brings together key institutions shaping Kerala’s business and innovation ecosystem. It is organised by the ICC Kerala Council, with the GETAI Foundation as the delivery partner and Kerala Startup Mission (KSUM) serving as the ecosystem partner and host.
