Interswitch, through its recent collaboration with ProductDive to empower African immigrants through technology by providing access to education, resources, and opportunities.
This is even as the two companies have hosted the first product management Conference in the United Kingdom.
The free event featured workshops, panel discussions, networking opportunities, and a free CV clinic all aimed at inspiring participants to excel in the tech industry and make meaningful contributions to the global economy.
The conference, tagged ‘Beyond Boundaries 1.0’, was curated for no-code tech career professionals and experienced product managers, with an overarching goal of enhancing the knowledge base of the product-focused community and accelerating the careers of product managers as they explore new horizons in their field.
Speaking on the partnership with ProductDive, divisional head, Brands & Communications at Interswitch Group, Tomi Ogunlesi, emphasised that as a key player in the digital payment landscape, Interswitch acknowledges the pivotal role of product management in shaping the future of technology and businesses.
“We are happy to once again partner with ProductDive for the second time, providing a platform for meaningful discussions that will propel the growth of product professionals. At Interswitch, we believe in empowering professionals not only to meet industry standards but to redefine them, fostering a community of innovation that transcends boundaries,” Ogunlesi stated.
Founder of ProductDive and host of the conference, Tobi Otokiti, shared that the Beyond Boundaries conference was on a mission to empower African immigrants through technology by providing access to education, resources, and opportunities.
“Interswitch’s commitment to supporting and upskilling talent in the tech industry is evident through its sponsorship of the 2023 ProductDive Product Management Conference and the 2023 Inspire Africa Conference by the Silicon Valley Product Group, both hosted in Lagos.
“By collaborating with various organisations on talent development initiatives such as these, Interswitch reiterates its focus on not only shaping the future of technology but also positively impacting the lives of millions through accessible, efficient, and secure financial services,” Otokiti pointed out.
