In this episode we welcome Foster Awintiti Akugri, a Ghanian innovation strategist and fintech leader with over a decade of experience driving product development, market expansion, and strategic partnerships across Africa, the Caribbean, and North America.
Foster brings insight into how Africa is shaping the future of technology: a young, fast-growing workforce and vast reserves of critical minerals are poised to shape chips, batteries, AI, and the global services economy. But enterprise tech needs to meet the market – build local support teams, price in local currency, and partner with banks on financing.
Foster also spotlights his work with Hacklab, a foundation dedicated to training thousands of young people in digital innovation, and its challenge-driven pipeline that gives students and builders access to real tools and real problems, turning open innovation into credible hires and production-grade prototypes.
