#INTRIGUEAFRICA Speakers

Paga is an inclusive organisation with 50% of the leadership team being women.

Edmund Olotu - Startup Founder of TechAdvance Ltd

Edmund brings a plethora of experience to the conference, having founded and financed several technology companies in Nigeria and the USA. Of these include Novira Therapeutics Inc. recently sold to Johnson and Johnson for $600 million, and his latest venture TechAdvance which received $1 million in funding to support its FinTech ambitions and expansion into emerging markets.

Edmund explains that one of the challenges facing high-growth organisations in Nigeria is the "inadequate access to intelligent finance that understands the life cycle of technology companies".
