DECEMBER BLOG POST
Hi guys. It’s December and we can’t believe how quickly the months have gone by. It has been such an eventful year for us and when the year began we did not foresee just how much we would be grateful for.
Our year has been punctuated with a lot of memorable moments that we would like to share with you.
This year was dedicated to our token, MAZ, to essentially raise awareness and educate the masses about it. And as the year progressed we accomplished the following;
- Introduced the Mazzuma Token(MAZ) in May : https://bit.ly/2GfrdIc

As the year progressed Mazzuma and its founders were honored for their achievements in the fintech industry which included the following;
- Forbes honored our founders in their June 2018 edition of the Forbes Africa 4th Annual Under 30 list. : https://bit.ly/2Ef5aF1

We truly appreciated the opportunity to mingle with the fintech and economic community of Africa this past year. Attending and hosting events that highlight our industry were also significant and are worthy of mentioning. This year we participated in the following:
- Attended African Union Hall Week from the 2nd to the 3rd of March 2018.

- Attended the World AI Show in Mauritius last week organised by the Ministry of Technology, Communication and Innovation (MTCI), the Republic of Mauritius in coordination with the Mauritian Economic Development Board (EDB) and Trescon. It was an exciting opportunity to experience how far fast Artificial Intelligence in the world is growing, to meet with people in the field and hear and exchange ideas.
However, we have a few more surprises for our cherished users before the year ends.
We will be releasing a new and updated Mazzuma app that will incorporate our mobile money and Mazzuma Token services, before the year ends. We will also be announcing our first crypto-exchange partner, as well as the proposed listing date. We are very excited to end the year on this note
We thank you for all your support and patronage throughout the year and we hope that we can continue to count on your support as we forge ahead to make complete financial inclusion a reality.
