Payment Innovation Summit - North Africa

Digital technologies are unlocking new pathways for rapid economic growth, innovation, employment, and access to all forms of services in Africa.

The internet penetration is a major facet that supports all verticals to enhance access of services, however Africa’s internet coverage still lags behind other regions, which creates a digital divide with the availability of services, and issues for the remote and poorer areas in many countries. This is the case with the financial services sector as well.

The question arises, how are governments, the financial services sector, and the telecommunication authorities working to narrow these digital divides, and enhance access of financial services to customers especially in the remote areas of Africa, which includes the poorest of the poor?

BII World brings to you the Payment Innovation Summit – North Africa, Presented by Network International, an event which is part of the flagship Africa Bank 4.0 Summit.

Within the audience the event hosts senior and executive management officials from the financial services sector to determine West Africa’s progressive future in payments, digital banking & beyond.
