KIGALI, Rwanda – February 2025. MicroAnalytics participated in the 2025 edition of the Inclusive Fintech Forum, held in Kigali, Rwanda—a leading hub for innovation and financial inclusion on the continent. This major event convened global thought leaders, startups, financial institutions, and policymakers around a shared mission: building a more inclusive digital economy through technology and collaboration.

Reconnecting with Regional Partners
The forum was a key opportunity to strengthen ties with one of our long-standing regional partners, who were also present at the event. Through in-depth discussions and working sessions, we explored how to scale innovative credit solutions across multiple markets, with a strong focus on local relevance and sustainable impact.

Our conversations highlighted the importance of partnership-driven approaches in tackling the barriers to financial access that persist across emerging economies. Together, we reaffirmed our commitment to designing data-powered tools that serve the unbanked and underbanked populations.

Driving the Future of Inclusive Finance
Throughout the event, the MicroAnalytics team engaged with diverse stakeholders across the fintech ecosystem—from central banks and digital lenders to mobile network operators and tech entrepreneurs. Discussions revolved around key themes including ethical data use, AI in financial services, regulatory innovation, and cross-border collaboration.

We were especially encouraged by the growing interest in alternative data as a foundation for responsible lending, credit scoring innovation, and new forms of digital financial services. These align closely with MicroAnalytics’ mission to empower institutions with the tools needed to reach new segments of the population.

Looking Ahead
Our presence at the Inclusive Fintech Forum 2025 reaffirmed the vital role of collaboration in driving financial inclusion at scale. As we continue to co-create solutions with our partners in the region, we remain committed to leveraging data and technology to unlock financial opportunities for all.

Stay tuned as we turn the insights and partnerships from Kigali into action in the months ahead.
