“In Sub-Saharan Africa today, 8 out of every 10 jobs are created by small business. They contribute 60% of GDP and yet these businesses operate on pen and paper.” Argues Charles Nichols, founder of Nuzo.

Michael Keating, Founder in Residence at Celo, shared the example of Uber marketplace which has created lots of opportunities for its drivers and those in support roles, such as scooter technicians.

However, Charles Nichols argues that Uber’s power structure is centralized hence the reason why drivers have had to protest to force change when they believed the company was ignoring their grievances.

The two-day event featured nearly 100 sessions, over 150 speakers, and included panel discussions, fireside chats, workshops, an immersive NFT experience.
