Commenting on the summit, Shaibu Haruna, CEO, MobileMoney Fintech LTD, said the event reflects both the continent’s momentum and MMFL’s commitment to responsible, people-centred financial innovation.
“Africa is no longer waiting for the world to define its financial future; we are actively building it. At MobileMoney Fintech LTD, we understand that speed and scale in digital finance must always be matched by responsibility. The 3i Africa Summit is exactly the kind of platform where those conversations must happen, and we are proud to be part of shaping that dialogue,” he said.
Now in its third year, the 3i Africa Summit has established itself as a premier continental platform anchored in Innovation, Investment, and Impact. The 2026 edition signals Africa’s shift from observation to structured implementation—integrating virtual assets, tokenisation, artificial intelligence, open banking, and digital public infrastructure to build more resilient financial systems.
MMFL and MTN Ghana’s participation underscores the companies’ commitment to responsible financial innovation—and to ensuring that Africa's rapid fintech growth translates into lasting, inclusive economic impact for consumers across the continent.
