Leading fintechs, investors, crypto platforms, ventures, and digital finance stakeholders will connect at the Africa Money & DeFi Summit West Africa edition on September 27-28 in Accra, Ghana.

The leading business Summit would connect over 400 delegates, over 150 companies, and more than 50 speakers who would cover topics via panel sessions, keynotes, and fireside chats, plus multiple networking events, masterclass sessions, and a sold-out exhibition.

Two days of sessions and networking events will share insights on payments, crypto, DeFi, neo banking, mobile money, investing, BNPL, and mobile money while connecting corporates, investors, start-ups, regulators, media, and industry stakeholders.

Andrew Fassnidge, Founder of Africa Tech Summit, said: “We are delighted to be hosting the West African edition of Africa Money and DeFi Summit in Accra, showcasing fintech leaders, crypto innovators, new rising ventures, and investment opportunities across the region.”

“The growth of crypto across Africa continues and a new wave of DeFi is growing, so it’s exciting times in the digital finance space to drive business and investment forward.”

Following the sold-out Money and DeFi Summit in Nairobi earlier this year, the Africa Money & DeFi Summit – West Africa, produced by Africa Tech Summit, will again connect and showcase industry leaders including Polygon, Paystack, VerifyMe, Celo, Flutterwave, BitPowr, Visa, YouVerify, Workpay, and many more.

The statement by Andrew says further The Africa Money and DeFi Summit will feature African fintech companies such as Polygon, QoreID, Deimos, Zeepay, Celo Foundation, The HBAR Foundation, VeendHQ, Workpay, AWS, WiPay, Cellulant, Binance, YellowCard, Autochek, YouVerify, Fonbnk, Seamfix, Jelurida Africa, Niji Oni & Co, Affinity, Aza Finance, Flutterwave, International Trade Centre

It stated that after the sold-out Money and DeFi Summit in Nairobi earlier this year, this business summit, produced by Africa Tech Summit, is expected to sell out, with final passes now on sale here. Admission is strictly by pre-registration only.

The “Pitch Live” session at the event, which strives to showcase leading ventures in fintech, crypto, and Web3 from across the continent and connect them with leading investors, corporates, and business opportunities, attracted over 200 submissions.

While more than 200 start-ups applied, only ten have cut to pitch live on stage during the upcoming Africa Money & DeFi Summit in Accra, Ghana.

Kotani Pay, which connects blockchain protocols to local payment channels, and The Realest Token, which combines real estate and NFTs to create the first “rNFTs,” are just two of the ventures that were chosen. KORIX is a DeFi app built to allow Africans to purchase the KRX token with CFA fiat money; Tokpay Finance, a DeFi neobank for microfinance and social protection programmes; and Revio, an all-in-one platform for recurring payments and collections infrastructure in emerging markets, starting with Africa.

The list of pitching startups is completed by Zanifu, which enables MSME retailers to access credit to purchase inventory; Crunch Network, a tokenised decentralised lending platform; Bitpowr, which provides a modular ecosystem of web3 and blockchain infrastructure to help businesses build blockchain powered solutions; Mazzuma, a mobile money payment system; and Jamborow, a SaaS platform digitising KYC and providing access to financial services to the unbanked and underbanked population across Africa.

“We are excited by the response to our latest edition of Pitch Live and are really looking forward to showcasing these new Web3 and fintech ventures.” “Following this year’s success stories from the Africa Tech Summit Nairobi edition, where several Pitch Live ventures closed rounds after pitching, we aim to continue to drive investment and connect ventures, investors and partners,” said Andrew Fassnidge.

The selected startups are:

The Realest Token aims to ensure equality of opportunity in investment. It innovates by combining real estate and NFTs to create pioneering rNFTs.
