In this #HTFintechSeries on Heads Talk,  we have a forensic conversation with Ali Hussein Kassim, CEO AHK Corp.

His diverse professional portfolio encompasses positions within several organisations in Kenya. Notably, he holds the chairmanship for the Association of Fintechs in Kenya, acknowledged as the official representative entity for the fintech sector in the nation. Furthermore, his leadership extends to chairing the Kenya ICT Action Network, emphasising his influence in the technology sector. Ali's extensive commitment spans both private and public sectors, evident through his participation on numerous boards.

Beyond his professional commitments, Ali actively engages in mentoring and investing in tech entrepreneurs across the African continent, further solidifying his impactful contributions to the region's technological advancement.

Halfway through our discussion, the conversation with Ali intensified, providing me with numerous and fascinating insights into the fintech landscape on the continent. We explored the patterns of some of the successes, as well as various critical issues and considerations within the ecosystem. This episode of Heads Talk is a must-listen to for those wanting to gain further insights into the Pan-African Fintech Landscape.  Thoroughly enjoyable.
