Fintech for Resilience Summit

Inclusive Fintech stage

Opening remarks

Over the past decade, fintech innovation has boomed across emerging markets and become the largest tech sector by VC dollars invested. Fintech innovators have also made strides in reaching underserved and vulnerable populations, yet most people have yet to realize the full benefits of financial service innovation. The pandemic has illustrated the ways in which digital and fintech innovation can help small businesses and underserved households weather difficult times, yet poverty has increased, savings have been depleted, and assets have been liquidated. Looking forward, as the pressures of climate change and looming economic downturn grow, how can fintech innovation drive increased resilience? How can fintech create deeper benefits for vulnerable and excluded populations? Join us as we explore these topics with leading fintech investors and innovators, including African unicorn Chipper Cash.
