The event is scheduled to be held on October 28 and 29, 2026, at the National Theatre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Organised by TechCabal, Moonshot has become a significant gathering point for founders, investors, policymakers, creatives, and operators shaping Africa\u2019s innovation economy. Since its launch in 2023, the conference has grown rapidly, attracting thousands of attendees from across the globe. The 2025 edition welcomed over <a href=\"https:\/\/techcabal.com\/2026\/05\/13\/grey-joins-moonshot-2026-as-headline-sponsor\/\">6,000 participants from 39 countries,<\/a> reinforcing Moonshot\u2019s status as one of Africa\u2019s most influential technology events. Grey\u2019s emergence as a headline sponsor reflects its expanding influence within the global fintech ecosystem. Founded in Lagos and now operating internationally, the company currently serves nearly three million users across 70 countries and supports transfers to more than 170 destinations in over 30 currencies. The company has also intensified its global expansion strategy through new regulatory approvals in Canada and the introduction of Canadian dollar payouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The partnership comes at a time when cross-border payments are becoming increasingly important to Africa\u2019s digital economy. Grey\u2019s recent launch of Grey Business, a platform designed to simplify international payments for startups and SMEs, positions the company at the centre of conversations around borderless finance and financial infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking on the partnership, Grey CEO and co-founder Idorenyin Obong said Moonshot represents an important platform for shaping the future of African innovation and global payments. Meanwhile, Tomiwa Aladekomo described Grey as one of the continent\u2019s most consequential fintech success stories, making the partnership a natural fit for the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of its involvement, Grey will host keynote sessions, executive roundtables, and immersive product experiences during the conference. With both organisations focused on connecting African innovation to global opportunities, the partnership signals a strong alignment between Africa\u2019s growing fintech ambitions and the future of cross-border commerce<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grey has been announced as the headline sponsor for Moonshot 2026, marking a major partnership between one of Africa\u2019s fastest-growing fintech companies and the continent\u2019s leading technology conference.
