The moment of truth has arrived. While more than 200 start-ups applied, only ten have made the cut to pitch live on stage during the upcoming Africa Money & DeFi Summit in Accra, Ghana.
The founders will pitch their leading ventures in fintech, crypto and Web3 to over 400 fintech and crypto leaders who are set to gather at the West Africa event on 27 and 28 September. They will also have a rare opportunity to connect with top investors, corporates, and other decision-makers.
