By the end of our interview, Warren Koopman is wriggling with impatience and fighting the urge to email his bosses.
He’s been talking about his plan to launch a startup focusing on AI as a joint venture between himself and the holding company Alternative Prosperity (Apros), where he’s the CIO. He only submitted the business plan a few days earlier, but he’s dying to hear their response. “Let’s just hope this AI thing takes off,” he says. “We’d see a profit within the first year of 5% and I think the revenue for five years hits the R70mn mark; that’s a huge amount.”
