RegTech Africa Conference 2025 – Catalyzing the Future of Fintech Innovation in Africa
Africa’s fintech landscape is evolving at an unprecedented rate, bringing opportunities and challenges to startups looking to expand and redefine financial services. With regulatory complexity, inefficiency in cross-border payments and investment barriers persist, one event is the ultimate platform to address these pressing issues: Regg Technology Africa Conference 2025 (www.regtechafrica.com).
Scheduled to be held in Lagos, Nigeria from May 22-23, 2025, with the theme of “Unlocking cross-border payments, trade and investment opportunities in Africa through public-private partnerships”, this year’s conference will be a game-changing moment for fintech startups across the continent. As industry regulators, policy makers, investors and technology pioneers come together, the conference will promote the next wave of fintech innovation and regulatory synergy.
The fintech revolution has brought millions of dollars into the financial system, but regulatory uncertainty and infrastructure gaps continue to hamper growth. The Regtech Africa conference aims to bridge these gaps, providing Fintech startups with a unique opportunity to align their solutions with the regulatory framework that governs Africa’s digital economy.
Cyril Okoroigwe, Chairman of the Organization Committee, highlighted the key role of regulatory technologies in promoting sustainable financial technology innovation: “The fintech ecosystem cannot thrive in isolation. Startups need a regulatory environment to support innovation while ensuring consumer protection and financial stability. This conference is where regulations are in line with innovation and creates avenues for scalable, compliant and impactful fintech solutions.”
Why fintech startups can’t afford to miss this event
1. Direct access to regulatory insights
Understanding compliance is just as important as developing pioneering solutions. Startups will have a rare opportunity to interact directly with regulators and gain insights on evolving policies, licensing requirements, and compliance strategies that can unlock new market opportunities.
2. Cross-border expansion and trade opportunities
With the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AFCFTA), seamless cross-border payments and trade are more important than ever. The conference will explore strategies to overcome existing trade barriers, enhance payment interoperability and leverage technology to promote intra-African commerce.
3. Unparalleled network and investor access
Funding remains a major challenge for African fintech startups. At the conference, attendees will connect with leading venture capitalists, institutional investors and finance executives who are actively seeking to fund scalable fintech innovations.
Joy Chibuzo, Director of Stakeholder Engagement at Regtech in Africa, noted: “Investors are eager to support startups that have not only innovative products, but also clear regulatory pathways. The conference brings together the right player mix to facilitate these critical conversations.”
4. Public-private cooperation
Fintech startups often struggle with navigation regulation of traditional Chinese tape festivals, but strategic partnerships with public institutions can alleviate this burden. The conference will discuss discussions on how startups can work with banks, governments and regulators to accelerate their growth and impact.
5. Showcase cutting-edge fintech solutions
For start-ups, visibility is everything. The 2025 Regtech Africa Conference provides a premier platform to demonstrate innovative solutions, engage in thought leadership, and position the brand as a pioneer in Africa’s fintech ecosystem.
