With support from GFPA, a strong African presence is expected at the event. This collaboration reflects the growing interest in fintech services across both regions. According to the World Economic Forum's 2024 report, 57% of fintech companies operate across multiple jurisdictions, with 18% in Latin America and the Caribbean and 15% in Sub-Saharan Africa. Allison Hunte, Co-founder and CEO of Fintech Islands, highlighted the potential for growth in both regions as digital financial services advance. She noted that Africa's rapidly growing fintech sector offers numerous opportunities for collaboration with the Caribbean. The compact size of the Caribbean provides a strategic sandbox for testing new technologies before scaling. Martin Kwame Awagah 🇬🇭🌍, President of GFPA and FiX25 African Representative, will promote the event in Africa. He emphasized the value of peer learning and networking opportunities at FiX events, which have influenced policy development and strategic initiatives in fintech. FiX25 is expected to attract over 700 attendees globally, featuring deep-dive content tracks on digital transformation, AI in fintech, modernizing payments, and more.
