SIDELINE EVENT

Digital Payment Forum

Digital Payment Forum is essential for facilitating trade, investment, and economic integration across Africa. However, the continent faces several challenges, including fragmented payment infrastructures, high transaction costs, currency conversion issues, and regulatory inconsistencies. Despite these challenges, cross-border payments hold immense potential to drive financial inclusion, boost intra-African trade, and support the growth of digital economies.

MSME Forum

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are the backbone of Africa's economy, contributing over 80% of employment and nearly 50% of GDP in many countries. However, limited access to digital infrastructure, financing, and cross-border market opportunities continues to hinder their growth. The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) presents a game-changing opportunity for MSMEs by facilitating seamless trade, improving digital connectivity, and promoting economic integration across the continent.
