Interswitch Group, one of the leading integrated payments and digital commerce company in Africa, has been unveiled as key Sponsor of the Committee of e-Business Industry Heads (Ce­BIH) 2024 Conference. Scheduled for December 4th to 5th 2024, at the Eko Convention Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos, the conference will explore the theme “Payment System Vision 2030: Navigating Contemporary Issues in Driving Future Growth.” CeBIH is made up of top-tier electronic business practitioners from all banks in Nigeria, with the primary objective of promoting electronic banking services that align with global best practices.

The CeBIH 2024 Conference will play a pivotal role in advanc­ing the goals of Payment System Vision (PSV) 2030 by evaluating progress, highlighting key mile­stones, and addressing challenges within the payment ecosystem. The PSV 2030 is a strategic framework developed by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to guide the evolution of the country’s payment systems over the next decade. Building on the success of previous initiatives like the Payment System Vision 2020, PSV 2030 aims to further advance financial inclusion, drive innova­tion in the payments sector, and support the broader digital econ­omy in Nigeria.



In anticipation of a keynote address titled ‘The Impact of Glo­balization and the Gig Economy on Inclusive Payment Systems in Nigeria’ to be delivered by Mitch­ell Elegbe, Founder and Group Managing Director, Interswitch, he remarked. “We are proud to support Ce­BIH and the 2024 CeBIH annual conference as it aligns perfect­ly with our vision of building seamless, secure, and future-ready payment systems for Africa. This partnership highlights Inter­switch’s commitment to drive innovation and advance the pay­ments ecosystem.

Together, we aim to address the evolving chal­lenges in digital payments and contribute to the development of a robust, inclusive, and sustainable digital economy across Africa.” The CeBIH 2024 conference will explore the role of technology and innovation in driving digital financial inclusion while foster­ing dialogue and collaboration between financial institutions, fin­tech companies, and regulators. The conference will also generate policy recommendations aimed at creating a supportive envi­ronment for the growth and sus­tainability of Nigeria’s payment ecosystem.

Furthermore, this year’s event will bring together thought lead­ers, industry experts, and policy­makers to explore strategies that will shape the future of payments in Nigeria and beyond. It will also feature engaging keynote speech­es, panel discussions, and inter­active sessions designed to drive meaningful outcomes. Interswitch’s sponsorship of the 2024 CeBIH annual con­ference underlines its ongoing commitment to drive innova­tion and shape the future of payments in Nigeria.

By sup­porting this impactful event, Interswitch continues to play a key role in advancing digital financial inclusion, promoting collaboration among key stake­holders and fostering the devel­opment of a robust and sustain­able payment ecosystem. As Nigeria moves towards achieving the objectives of PSV 2030, Interswitch continues to play a key role in the financial ecosys­tem, working alongside industry leaders to ensure that Africa’s pay­ment systems evolve to meet the dynamic needs of its people. In­terswitch will continue to lead the way in driving a seamless, secure, and inclusive digital economy for Nigeria and beyond.
