Our Business Lab Director, Larry Ayo, joined thought leaders at the panel discussion on “Balancing Innovation and Regulation: Crafting Inclusive Policies for AI” hosted by @MediaConvergecy at the #iwtz2025.
As AI continues to shape governance, media and public services, the conversation emphasized the need for inclusive, context-aware policies that both foster innovation and protect public interest.
We're proud to be part of shaping Tanzania’s digital future.

Not all startups are built to last. Some chase hype. Others, like Africa’s leading fintechs, grow deep roots designed to survive droughts, adapt to tough terrain, and bear real fruit for millions.
Inspired by @topazdecimal's brilliant piece “The Baobab Story of African Fintech Startups,” he explores what founders and ecosystem players can learn from this baobab mindset.
Are you planting a baobab or a shrub that wilts at the first sign of trouble?
