FirstBank Announces Fintech Summit 5.0

The Summit is an event geared towards bringing together the finest and most innovative subject matter experts who are at the forefront of digital innovation both locally and on the global stage.

About FirstBank FinTech Summit

The FirstBank FinTech Summit 5.0 has become a tradition since inception in 2016. The Summit is an event geared towards bringing together the finest and most innovative subject matter experts who are at the forefront of digital innovation both locally and on the global stage. This year’s edition will be the fifth in the series, having skipped the Summit in 2017.

The FirstBank Fintech Summit had been a physical event, with attendance of about 1,000 participants, up until last year, when it was hosted online due to the COVID-19 pandemic and in line with the guidelines for managing the situation. As was the case last year, this year’s Summit will also be hosted as a virtual event, to allow people from all over the world participate and access the same quality of discussants and speakers.

This year’s theme (Open Banking & its Derivative Opportunities for the Financial Ecosystem) has been carefully selected against the backdrop of the increasingly prominent role open data, artificial intelligence and cloud-based technologies are playing, not just in the broader tech-space, but more specifically in the financial services and financial technology landscapes.

The increasingly pervasive intersection of these variables in various aspects of human enterprise represents a powerful force for the creation of new ventures via a new gateway that will promote unlimited value creation or innovation.

As a bank, we are of the view that Open Banking is representative of such an intersection, setting its roots down in the financial-services space but embodying the transformative potential capable of redefining customer satisfaction across the entire landscape of the financial ecosystem. This shall form the pivot of the conversations around the Summit this year.

Summit: Thursday, 7 October 2021

Incubation Hub for African Entrepreneurs Opens in Johannesburg
Unicorn Group, a pan-African investment firm focused on innovative ideas, start-ups, and early-stage enterprises in Africa’s technology and technology-enabled sectors, has opened a campus in Johannesburg, South Africa.

According to a statement from the company, the Unicorn incubation and innovation campus seeks to house an entrepreneurial ecosystem under one roof and assist African entrepreneurs in bringing their ambitious ideas to reality.

Users of the Unicorn Incubation Campus will have access to a variety of resources, including technology, high-speed internet, management coaching, pitch training, a pool of international and national experts, resident mentors, government agencies, venture capitalists, angel investors, and other stakeholders, who will provide African start-ups and innovators with unparalleled access to the tools, talent, and funding.

“The Unicorn Incubation Campus reiterates our commitment towards spurring innovation and empowering entrepreneurs to identify and build sustainable and competitive companies that will contribute to the economic growth of Africa,” says Dr. Akintoye Akindele, Chairman Unicorn Group.

“We are very excited that is happening in South Africa as Platform Capital and Unicorn Group have invested in a few South Africa businesses (Merge and Elite Career Solutions) and we look forward to investing in more sustainable South African businesses.”

The Unicorn Incubation Campus Johannesburg will set a new benchmark and address the issues encountered by entrepreneurs, early start-ups, and early-stage enterprises across Africa, following the successful introduction of the Unicorn Incubation Campuses in Lagos, Accra, and Dallas this year.

“As Africans continue to innovate and position the continent as an increasingly attractive destination for investment, competition on the global stage, and technology-based solutions, Unicorn Group is pleased to support an ecosystem that will empower entrepreneurs to bring their ambitious ideas to life and propel us toward the Africa we desire,” adds Dr. Akindele.

How Technology is Creating New Jobs for South Africans

How Technology is Creating New Jobs for South Africans
Without a doubt, the epidemic has hastened most digitalization trends, compressing what would have taken years into months.

Even the most cloud-sceptical CEO, for example, praised technology’s capacity to assure business continuity as we rapidly switched to a remote workplace.

However, given South Africa’s recent unemployment rates and sluggish GDP, it’s understandable that people are concerned about the impact of digitization on job availability.

According to Statistics South Africa, unemployment rates in the first quarter of 2021 were at a record high of 32.6%, with a rate of a staggering 46.3% among people aged 15 to 34 years old.

However, digitization and the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) will generate more jobs than they will eliminate. According to The Future of Work in South Africa, a McKinsey analysis, digitization might result in a net gain of over one million jobs in the country by 2030.

Furthermore, according to the study, technology adoption may double South Africa’s productivity, double per capita income growth, and add more than a percentage point to the country’s real GDP over the next ten years.

And the funny thing is, we’re already seeing this potential, with enormous skills shortages in key areas that will drive and sustain digitization initiatives.

Despite the rapid acceleration of digitisation, businesses must look for more sustainable solutions to integrate their systems through automation. This method adds a third option for completing tasks: the digital worker. Digital employees, also known as robotic process automation (RPA), excel at tasks that humans aren’t particularly excellent at and don’t particularly love.

Things like precise data entry or adhering to certain, but tedious, online processes. So, undoubtedly, human workers will be displaced from boring, repetitive professions by digital labour. They do, however, provide options.

Legacy Assets (Sweat)

Because digital workers interact with systems in the same way that humans do, there is less of a need to update old infrastructure to accelerate transformation.
Extending the life of legacy infrastructure while gaining the benefits of integrated digitisation saves money and boosts productivity.

Boost Productivity

The benefits of increased productivity are numerous.
Removing friction from operations that appear to be digital but are manual behind the scenes improves the customer experience and satisfies customer expectations for a truly digital experience.
Furthermore, digital workers can complete these tedious, monotonous activities significantly faster and for far longer than humans, resulting in increased volumes and reduced backlogs.

Business Models that are Different

Intelligent automation (RPA powered by AI) allows digital workers to replicate human behaviours more accurately using techniques like machine learning (ML) and optical character recognition (OCR), laying the groundwork for new digital business models, goods, and services that are supplied at speed and scale.

Not only individual procedures, but end-to-end automation throughout the entire organization now opens up additional possibilities and improves alignment with strategic business goals, including increased productivity and better customer experience.

Higher productivity and innovative business models fuel growth and job creation in related industries: increased e-commerce volumes, for example, necessitate additional warehouse pickers and delivery employees. In addition, new occupations are produced, as well as greater opportunities for humans.

Contact centre agents may retrain to manage a fleet of thousands of digital workers, boosting efficiency and productivity while also putting them on the path to management. Process identification and opportunity evaluation, creating and implementing automation, connecting between the business and IT, and scheduling and allocating work for digital workers are among several new skills required.

Another pattern we’re seeing is that whenever companies are ready to scale their automation across the board – giving business units the flexibility to run with the automation they need for optimum impact – they’re having trouble finding the right people to fill these new roles.

Yes, digitization will inevitably replace as well as generate jobs, with the total result being an increase in employment. Governments, the tech industry, enterprises, entrepreneurs, and citizens must all work together to guarantee that these openings are filled with qualified candidates.

Press Statement: Federal Executive Council Approves 5G Policy for Nigeria

The Federal Executive Council has approved the National Policy on Fifth Generation (5G) Networks for Nigeria’s Digital Economy. The 5G Policy was approved at the Council meeting today, Wednesday, 8th September 2021, following the presentation by the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Ali Ibrahim (Pantami). The implementation of the National Policy is with immediate effect.

The National Policy has been developed over a period of 2 years, due to the need for extensive stakeholder engagement and the need to ensure adequate public awareness and sensitization. The stakeholder engagement was thorough and multi-sectoral in nature. It also took into account the report of the 3-month 5G trials that commenced on the 25th of November 2019. The report critically reviewed and studied the health and security implications of deploying 5G in Nigeria.

Leading international organisations such as the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), an organ of the United Nations, have confirmed that the deployment of 5G networks leave no adverse health effect and are safe.

5G networks offer significant advantages over the current technologies. Some of its advantages include much lower latency, higher bandwidth, greater device density, longer battery life for nodes and greater network flexibility. Several countries have already commenced the deployment of 5G and are enjoying its benefits. These countries include the United States, United Kingdom, Republic of Korea, South Africa and Lesotho, to mention but a few.

The National Frequency Management Council (NFMC), chaired by Minister Pantami, will soon release spectrum to the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) for the Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) that meet all the required conditions.

The NCC, as the regulator of the telecommunications sector, will continue engaging stakeholders with a view to developing the regulatory instruments required for the successful deployment of the technology in Nigeria.

A Fintech Company Has Raised N2.2 Billion in Series 1 PCN Funding
Under its N10 billion program, CapitalSage Technology Limited raised N2.2 billion in a series 1 Private Company Notes issuance.

The cash was raised to drive the company’s expansion across several markets in Nigeria and Africa, according to a news statement. United Capital Plc served as the transaction’s sole advisor and arranger, according to the business.

According to the company, “The Series 1 issuance, with a 365-day tenor, was subscribed with firm commitments from Fund managers and other institutional investors.

“The successful debt-financing round came on the heels of a positive investment appraisal of A3 (short-term) and BBB (long-term) with a stable outlook received from GCR Ratings, coupled with the strategic partnership and guidance of United Capital.

“This makes CapitalSage the first FinTech Company to be Noted on a Private Markets platform and the FinTech Company which has raised the highest debt amount in the Nigerian CapitalMarkets.”

“Our expansion is mainly motivated by our mission to build a sustainable and inclusive digital financial infrastructure that continuously empowers individuals and companies and enables wealth creation,” said John Alamu, Group Managing Director.

“We are constantly at the cutting edge of digital innovation that increases financial access across Nigeria. With this funding, we are poised to further redefine the finance landscape and scale up financial inclusion across Africa.”

The Head, Capital Markets & Advisory at United Capital, Babatunde Ajayi added, “CapitalSage Technology is a FinTech which offers a wide range of financial and technological solutions and has shown huge growth potential.

“The Company was able to attain an investment-grade rating from GCR, enabling this first entry to the Capital Markets. The transaction affirms CapitalSage’s strong management execution capacity and corporate governance position.

“In addition, it has paved the way for other FinTechs to approach the Nigerian Capital Markets, especially the deep pool of Private Markets available. United Capital Plc, leveraging on its deep knowledge of the capital and debt markets in Africa, is well-positioned to provide the right support for FinTechs seeking to access funding irrespective of size and length of existence.”

MTN Ghana makes a $1.6 million donation to the Girls in ICT Program.
MTN Ghana, Africa’s largest telecommunications company, has contributed $1.6 million (GHS10 million) to the Girls in Information Communication Technology (ICT) Project. A Ghanaian project aiming at introducing young women to the field of information and communication technology.

 

The contribution, according to Business Ghana, will last three years and is part of MTN Ghana’s 25th-anniversary celebrations. MTN Ghana’s Chief Corporate Services Officer, Samuel Koranteng, said the firm was happy to assist the government’s efforts to close the gender gap in the country’s ICT industry at a brief ceremony in Accra to give the contribution.

“Our core belief as a business is that everyone deserves the benefits of modern, connected life. We, therefore, strive to ensure that men and women benefit equally from ICT,” Koranteng said, while also noting that MTN is a signatory to the United Nations Women Empowerment Principles, which has encouraged the firm to advance the cause and proliferation of gender equality in their business.

“Gender Empowerment is a key strategic component of MTN’s Corporate Social Investment and over the years we have made significant contributions in this regard. We however do not wait until precocious young girls become seasoned women professionals before taking an interest in them. Our contributions start from the grassroots level,” he added.

Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, Ghana’s Minister of Communications and Digitalisation, stated that the country’s tech sector has long been dominated by males, necessitating the need to teach and encourage more women to enter the field. She believes that exposing girls to ICT at a young age would help them develop the essential abilities to compete in the tech sector later on.

“I am excited how young girls have joined the program and are learning the mainstream ICT education like decoding and building of websites,” Owusu-Ekuful said.

According to the Minister, 1,000 young women are presently being taught in Ghana’s Western North area as part of an ongoing event. She went on to say that she hopes to see more women receiving training around the country to help them advance in their careers.

MTN Ghana was praised for its generosity, and Owusu-Ekuful called on other organizations to sponsor the initiative so that more African women may get much-needed ICT knowledge and skills.
