The Search, Global Tour: Africa, stop 1

Join Fintech Abu Dhabi in a global search for the most innovative and disruptive startups within financial technology.

Africa is being mooted as the next big fintech hub and it certainly looks to be a contender with new fintechs raising almost $350m during the first quarter of 2020. In the first of two webinars live from the African continent, we’ll be taking a look at the opportunities offered by its 54 nations as we hear from another four inspirational fintech startups.

Join Iyinoluwa Aboyeji, Founder & General Partner at Future Africa for a closer look at how he, and Andela co-founder Nadayar Enegesi, kick-started Future Africa.

We’ll also meet Frank Molla, Managing Director & Head of Sub-Sahara Africa at BPC Technologies, for a discussion on the opportunities presented by the African continent and why fintech startups are thriving.
