It started with a reality Africa is already living: money moves across currencies, people travel across markets, and businesses are increasingly serving customers beyond their home countries. Yet, the systems supporting that movement are still catching up.
That became the starting point for The Borderless Experience by Condia, bringing together founders, operators, financial institutions, policymakers and industry leaders to explore what it will take to make cross-border movement simpler, faster and more connected.
The conversations moved from the everyday experiences of the borderless consumer and traveller to the infrastructure behind cross-border commerce, the role of stablecoins, and what businesses must build to serve customers without borders.
At the end, #TBE2026 had delivered more than a power-packed event. It created a room where ideas met experience, questions met different perspectives, and the future of a more borderless Africa became a conversation we could all take part in.
Thank you to everyone who showed up, shared their perspectives and helped make The Borderless Experience by Condia X @AfrichangeHQ a success.

Hey @DadaBen_ , you are truly a Superman.
What an incredible gathering and an even more incredible experience. The energy, the conversations, the people, and the ideas shared were simply amazing.

I think Mr. Tony’s “I don’t subscribe to that kind of oyinbo life” is the real point here.
Not everything Western must become our standard of progress. In Nigerian culture, titles and respectful forms of address often communicate honour, not inferiority.
You can believe everyone has equal human dignity and still understand that respect, age and hierarchy shape how we address people. Cultures differ, and that’s okay.
Personally, I’d rather begin with “Mr. Elumelu” and be invited to call him Tony than assume a familiarity that hasn’t been given.
