According to a recent LinkedIn post from Thunes, the company is participating in the 25th Connected Banking Summit in Accra, Ghana, with executive Folake Egunjobi scheduled to speak. The session is described as focusing on innovations in Africa’s payments ecosystem, including how regulatory evolution and infrastructure upgrades are enabling new use cases.

The post suggests that Thunes aims to position itself as a key facilitator of both local and cross-border payments across African markets. By highlighting themes such as scalability, financial inclusion, and opportunities for banks, fintechs, and financial institutions, the content points to Thunes’ strategic interest in deepening its presence in high-growth African payment corridors.
The emphasis on cross-border models may indicate ongoing efforts to expand transaction volumes and partnerships in remittances and B2B flows. For investors, this positioning in a rapidly maturing payments landscape could support a growth narrative, although the post does not provide quantitative metrics or specific commercial outcomes tied to the summit.
The invitation to book meetings with the Thunes team at the event implies active business development efforts targeting regional financial players. If such engagements translate into new integrations or corridor expansions, this could enhance Thunes’ network effects and competitive standing in African digital payments over the medium term.
