Dubai, UAE — Ketapay's investor syndicate, comprising pan-African fintech funds and a group of strategic angels, will meet in person at GITEX Global in Dubai this December. The meeting, convened on the sidelines of the world's largest technology event, will review Ketapay's traction data, product roadmap, and readiness for a Series A raise planned for Q1 2027.
Why GITEX
GITEX Global has become the default gathering point for African founders and the international investors watching the continent's technology sector. For Ketapay, the location reflects the growing cross-border interest in Nigerian fintech infrastructure — several investors in the syndicate are based in the Gulf, and GITEX provides the clearest signal that African payment infrastructure is a global conversation.
"Our investors chose GITEX deliberately. The conversation about African fintech no longer stays in Africa — and neither should ours." — CEO, Ketapay
What the meeting signals
The in-person convening comes after Ketapay's strongest quarter since founding. Transaction volume grew 340% year-on-year in Q3 2026, dispute resolution times dropped to under 18 hours on average, and the platform processed its first ₦1 billion month in October. Investors gathering ahead of a formal raise process indicates strong alignment and confidence in the company's trajectory.
Ketapay will not be exhibiting at GITEX Global. The investor meeting is a private event. The company expects to announce its Series A process formally in Q1 2027.
