The payments, banking and financial sectors are currently at the height of change, defined by innovation and development in technology and regulation.

As consumers, businesses and governments adapt to a digital world, the desire for tech enabled solutions that improve traditional transaction methods and financial services is growing rapidly.

West Africa in particular is ripe for disruption with it being home to one of the 3 fastest growing economies in Africa. With a massive unbanked population, West Africa offers an abundance of lucrative opportunities.

Seamless West Africa is a multi-brand event, with 500+ attendees and a world leading strategic conference. The event will welcome market leading industry players from central banks, commercial banks, insurance, e-tailers, telcos, merchants, government, fintechs and tech startups, all looking to procure and collaborate with the latest tech and services on the market.

The conference is a C-level platform that will focus on global trends and disruptors, how market players can capitalise on the opportunities and best respond to the threats. Addressing the big issues from fintech disruption to financial inclusion, blockchain and regtech, we will host over 70+ world class thought leaders and welcome hundreds of conference attendees.

With keynote addresses, interviews, roundtables, panels, pre-event workshops and track sessions that focus on challenges and opportunities within the industry, the content has been designed to educate, inspire and empower commerce leaders to improve their innovative strategies and integration — effectively cultivating their bottom line.

With a thought provoking, dynamic agenda and a wide variety of engaging and forward thinking topics, this globally attended event promises to push the boundaries. This is made evident with the first ever regional Central Bank Panel which discusses the importance of creating partnerships that safeguard financial stability while working with disruptors and promoting the adoption of fintech innovation.

Combining our history and our passion for innovation, we are committed to bringing you the most exciting event for this brave new world of commerce and build essential connections to drive businesses forward in 2018 and beyond.

We look forward to welcoming you to Seamless West Africa, Ghana.
