HONG KONG, March 17, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

The inaugural Africa Blockchain Week will launch from June 28th to July 1st

2021.

NexChange Group, a blockchain ecosystem and venture builder and MARITA Group,

an African conglomerate will combine forces to co-host this Virtual Summit. The

event will feature key industry players and decision-makers contributing to

regulation, application, investment and education across many African

countries.

Juwan Lee, Chairman of NexChange Group: "Africa is the next big move for

blockchain. We see not just opportunities in the payment space and financial

inclusion, but we see significant institutional involvement."

The new reality has proven technology to be a bridge to a better future. Strong

ties between African countries, like the cooperation South-South, encouraged by

HRH Mohammed VI go beyond just politics. New economic bridges ensure that

Africa is able to bypass certain steps on a technological stair, positioning

itself ahead of the global curve. Described by the World Bank and called

leapfrogging, it relies strongly on enhanced technologies including blockchain.

Rahhal Boulgoute, Chairman of Marita Group: "Blockchain will revolutionize

Africa and provide opportunities for financial inclusion. It is important that

we expose blockchain technology in Africa."

The impact is seen on Africa's financial map. Over the last years, digital

banking and mobile payments have proven to be a real-life case study for

millions of users, making people's financial lives better, ensuring inclusion,

and changing the game for the unbanked. Banks, enterprises, and entrepreneurs

are changing the continent's destiny, shaping the investment landscape.  

This event backs the efforts of the African regulators to adopt the required

regulations to embrace blockchain and become a main global player in the

technologies shaping the future. The ambition of the Co-hosts is to make Africa

Blockchain Week the key platform for dialogue and networking between all

stakeholders in blockchain to transform it into a reality in Africa.
