3i Africa Summit connects fintechs to investors, customers
3i Africa Summit connected financial technology (fintech) companies with investors, consumers and other value chain players at the 2026 summit in Accra. The three-day programme enabled fintech companies, virtual asset providers, and financial market innovators to showcase their solutions and form partnerships.
Mr. Kwadwo Boakye-Yiadom, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Director of Mansu Technologies, lauded the exhibition, saying, "We have engaged directly with people and businesses about crypto, helping address confusion around crypto. The exhibition served as a platform to educate, build trust, and show that crypto is not foreign-owned." He described the Central Bank's passage of the Virtual Asset Service Providers Act, 2025 (Act 1154) as a landmark development. Mr. Enoch Nana Kweku Ansah, Relationship Manager at One Africa Markets, said that the exhibition was valuable as it made them engage with partners and other fintech ecosystem players to share ideas.
Mr. Kwabena Okyere Boamah, the Head of Sales at Fido, said the exhibition was a strong platform for market intelligence, customer outreach, and brand visibility. He mentioned compliance pressures, regulatory complexity, and a persistent culture of loan default in parts of the informal sector as challenges facing the sector.
