The event with the theme ‘Unlocking Growth Opportunities through Technology and Innovation’, held in Abuja, highlighted the expanding role of data analytics, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence (AI) in advancing financial modernisation.

In his keynote speech titled, ‘The Future of Financial Services – Leveraging Digital Transformation for Growth’, managing director, Digital Infrastructure and Managed Services (Interswitch Systegra), Jonah Adams, represented by head Sales, North, Interswitch, Thomas Eze said that “the digital revolution we are witnessing in financial services goes far beyond convenience, it is a transformative shift that opens up new pathways for growth and innovation.

“From streamlining transactions to enhancing customer experience, this wave of digital advancement is redefining how we engage, connect, and serve. At Interswitch, we see digitalisation as a powerful enabler that not only drives efficiency but also expands our ability to reach previously underserved communities, fostering a more inclusive and connected financial ecosystem across Nigeria.”
