Lawrence Muthoga, Startup Account Executive, Sub-Saharan Africa at Amazon Web Services, expressed enthusiasm about this collaboration, stating, “Africa has leap-frogged in the financial space. This is due to the great impact had by the amazing startups and ecosystem players who have taken it upon themselves to improve the lives of the communities around them.
