20th Edition Connected Banking East Africa 2025
12th March, 2025 - Nairobi, Kenya
Connected Banking East Africa is a pivotal summit driving the region’s digital transformation and advancing financial inclusion in the BFSI sector. As East Africa stands at a critical crossroads, the need for strategic innovation in banking is more urgent than ever. With challenges such as limited digital infrastructure, rising cybersecurity threats, and a significant digital skills gap, the region requires collaborative solutions to foster growth and resilience.
The summit brings together industry leaders to address these pressing issues, explore the adoption of scalable technologies like cloud computing, and drive sustainable solutions for mobile financial services. With 76% of African banks considering digital transformation a top priority and East Africa leading mobile banking adoption, the summit serves as a vital platform for the region’s banking sector to explore future-ready technologies and innovative partnerships.
Moreover, the summit focuses on bridging the digital divide, with discussions on enhancing internet accessibility, improving digital literacy, and addressing regulatory frameworks needed for secure digital platforms. In a time where digital skills are growing exponentially but internet access remains limited, Connected Banking East Africa plays a central role in shaping a future of inclusive growth.
This is a unique opportunity for key stakeholders to engage in meaningful dialogue, share insights, and collaborate on actionable solutions that will define the future of banking in East Africa.
