Scheduled for next week, the summit will convene esteemed experts, innovators, and industry leaders from across the globe to discuss the latest trends and developments in financial technology.
Since its launch in 2016, the FirstBank Fintech Summit has become a leading event, drawing top experts in digital innovation from Nigeria and beyond.
Although the summit moved online in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s gathering will take place in a hybrid format, allowing participants worldwide to engage with distinguished speakers and partake in meaningful discussions.
A significant feature of this year’s summit is the introduction of the Fintech Innovators Pitch Programme, which aims to support early-stage fintech startups and stimulate innovation in the financial services landscape.
Chosen startups will receive comprehensive training and mentorship, culminating in the chance to present their innovative solutions to FirstBank, key investors, and industry specialists.
Winning startups will gain crucial support from FirstBank to advance their products to market, including strategic advice, resources, and access to an extensive network.
The FirstBank Fintech Summit 6.0 promises an engaging array of sessions and valuable networking opportunities, making it an essential event for industry leaders and innovators.
The two-day summit will include expert keynote speeches, panel discussions, regulatory and investor roundtables, fireside chats, and masterclasses.
Speaking on the summit, the CEO FirstBank Group, Olusegun Alebiosu said “This year’s summit provides a platform to unite industry leaders, innovators, regulators, and thought leaders to explore how collaboration and partnerships can shape the future of financial services and technology.
As FirstBank continues to lead in innovation, this event presents another unique opportunity to engage with key stakeholders and deepen our understanding of emerging trends in the Fintech landscape emphasising our role not only as a participant but also as a leading and preferred partner in the Fintech domain.”
