PR Manager at Legit.ng, Catherine Tomosori, stressed the importance of telling stories of exploits from the tech community as this is the only way tech organisations will grow, and the only way to revolutionise the nation and the continent through technology.

“In this age of disruption, we need more tech festivals like the Lagos Startup Week, to ensure that we catch up with the rest of the world. It is important that we support the festival organisers by telling their impact stories and projecting the change that they are poised to stir, to members of the tech community within and outside Africa.

As a digital-first news company and a media company with a strategic business news vertical, we are even happier to have played a pivotal role in stirring disruptive conversations about the fintech industry through the panel session that we moderated – Go Global, think local: How to scale in Fintech. We stay resolved in our commitment to amplifying more stories from the African tech ecosystem to the world.”
