—Maya Horgan Famodu, Managing Director, “AFTS is the most beneficial conference series I have ever
Ingressive Capital attended period. It is not your typical conference where
everyone is trying to sell you something. This is a true
network of professionals that are looking to help each
other and make lasting connections.”
“Great event!! It was well organised with the right —Chris Maurice, CEO, Yellow Card Financial
discussion topics with great speakers in all panels.. Key
was the covering of real issues in emerging markets and
addressing them from an African perspective.”
—Praveen Sadalage,
Vice President Commercial Operations Africa,
Emergent Technologies
The selection of the AFTS 2019 Africa host city was not an easy one, with several
major tech hubs from across the continent vying for the honor. Ultimately,
however, the AFTS advisory board unanimously selected Ethiopia’s vibrant
capital, Addis Ababa.
The reason is clear. Africa’s fastest growing economy and the continent’s
second most populous country is at the precipice of unprecedented change.
Thanks to the extensive infrastructure investment over the last two decades,
an ambitious structural reform agenda, partial privatization of the national
telecommunications industry and the opening for two new providers, imminent
liberalization in the financial sector, and a clear embrace of innovation as an
economic driver, Ethiopia presents unparalleled opportunities for investment,
entrepreneurship, and innovation in fintech.
The AFTS Addis presents a unique opportunity for stakeholders from around
the world and from within Ethiopia to help shape an evolving fintech policy
landscape, source new and exciting partners and opportunities, and gain
first-mover advantage in Africa’s most dynamic economy.
