ABOUT
THE AFRICA FINTECH SUMMIT (AFTS) is the premiere global initiative
dedicated to fintech on the continent. Twice a year, we bring the issues,
entrepreneurs, and opportunities revolutionizing finance and financial
inclusion in Africa to the world’s stage. Our spring event occurs each
April in Washington, DC, as business and political leaders from across
the world gather for the annual meetings of the World Bank and IMF.
Our fall event is each November in a different Africa city. The AFTS
awards recognize excellence in entrepreneurship and innovation, the
Alpha Expo program provides scholarships and access to promising
pre-funded startups from across the continent, and our tech tours and
investors missions forge global connections and raise awareness for
Africa’s diverse fintech ecosystems. Supported by an advisory board of
thought leaders and fintech pioneers, the AFTS is a unique space where
ideas are explored, investments mobilized, and collaborations formed
across sectors and geographies.
