Last year, Kenya hosted the first Afro-Asia Fintech festival, featuring over 1500 participants from 45 countries. The event models Singapore Fintech Festival, seeking to develop sustainable innovations in financial services from emerging markets.

The debut festival was a partnership between CBK and the Singaporean Monetary Authority, and the launch of the Global Fintech Hackcelerator in Kenya.

The hackathon challenges fintech startups to develop innovative, scalable financial solutions. Kenya’s Kwara and Uganda’s Bureau Vente won the hackathon and received platforms to showcase their innovations globally.
