About LFAI Academy
Artificial Intelligence is transforming every industry across the Asia-Pacific region, yet one challenge remains consistent across every market.
AI capability has not kept pace with AI innovation.
LFAI Academy exists to help professionals, leaders, and organisations move from AI curiosity to real-world AI capability.
We believe AI capability should extend beyond technical teams to the professionals shaping adoption across businesses, governments, educational institutions, and communities.
Through practitioner-led learning, we are building practical, responsible, and workplace-ready AI capability across the Asia-Pacific region.
About the opportunity
As LFAI Academy continues to grow, we are establishing our inaugural Founding Advisory Board (APAC). We are inviting respected practitioners and leaders from across the region to help shape the future of practical AI education.
This is an opportunity to contribute your experience, share regional perspectives, and help ensure AI capability development reflects the diverse needs of organisations across Asia-Pacific.
IMPORTANT
This is not an employment opportunity.
This is an unpaid Founding Advisory Board appointment. You will be contributing your expertise as a strategic advisor to LFAI Academy.
We're intentionally building a small and diverse advisory board that reflects the breadth of industries, cultures, and AI maturity across APAC.
Why LFAI Academy?
Many organisations have started their AI journey. Far fewer have successfully embedded AI into everyday work.
The gap isn't access to technology. The gap is capability.
Our mission is to close that gap through learning that is:
• Practitioner-led
• Practical before theoretical
• Responsible by design
• Accessible to non-technical professionals
Because AI adoption succeeds when people, not just technology are prepared.
What you'll contribute
As a Founding Advisory Board Member, you'll help shape the strategic direction of LFAI Academy across the region.
Your contributions may include:
→ Advising on emerging AI capability needs across APAC
→ Providing insights into workforce readiness and industry transformation
→ Supporting responsible and trusted AI adoption
→ Reviewing learning priorities to ensure regional relevance
→ Connecting LFAI Academy with ecosystem partners, institutions, and communities
→ Contributing ideas that strengthen practical AI capability across Asia-Pacific
This is a strategic advisory role designed to bring together diverse expertise and perspectives.
