The country left the whole region behind when in just the first 3 months of 2022 it garnered a record high VC funding of $482million. Spearheading as the most technologically advanced country in the continent, Kenya has earned the title of “Silicon Savannah” which also correlates to the fact that 94% Kenyans are mobile money users. Even the Central Bank of Kenya has joined the bandwagon and launched its “National Payments Strategy 2022 – 2025” to encourage innovations in the payments system.

March 7, 2024 | UK

Cloud is no longer a nice-to-have. Cloud is a must-have technology that is at the crux of operations across the financial services industry. Over the last few years, banks, fintech firms and technology providers have established a holistic strategy, migrated to cloud, and optimised their omnichannel services. The foundation is now in place. Gone are the days of resistance and hesitance to cloud: in order to succeed, every company handling core business-critical workloads across payments, clearing and settlement must utilise cloud today. Today, organisations must place impetus on strategising with their multiple cloud providers, system integrators and technology providers to offer the best experience to their customers; migrating infrastructures to platforms where financial firms can align on speed, agility, and innovation; and optimising cloud platforms to empower brands to create intelligent, revenue-generating products. The Financial Cloud Summit will help decision makers across the banking, payments and fintech sectors to bridge the cloud strategy, migration and optimisation gap, offering actionable solutions to speed up their journey.
