According to Disrupt Africa, applications are now open for the first Fincluders Startup Challenge to be held outside of Europe. Fintech entrepreneurs from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) are eligible for the US$15,000 competition.
The challenge will take place on May 3-4 in Amman, Jordan, and seeks to identify and promote fledgling fintech companies offering products for expanding access to finance in MENA. The SANAD Technical Assistance Facility will offer finalists a trip to Jordan and accommodation during mentoring sessions conducted by FinTech industry experts. Finalists will then present their products and services to a jury of finance industry managers and an audience of investors, regulators, and development finance specialists.
