Quotes I can do something really big and really impactful here. There’s so much opportunity to solve problems. For too long, Africa has leaned on imported solutions, paying premiums for software and services – But as we say, ‘Yes, there is rice at home!’ And now, there’s a cloud built here for us, and it’s just as good, not better. At Okra, we fundamentally believe that convenience trumps everything, and part of our mission is to constantly improve the experience consumers have with their favourite Bank & Fintech apps by enabling the builders. We built impactful technology, worked with some of the biggest brands across the continent, and helped pioneer open banking in Africa.
