Trade between Tanzania and Kenya is growing, but cross-border payments remain challenging for founders, traders, and diaspora professionals.

On 13th March, our ecosystem member @WakaPayments is hosting the Kenyan Diaspora Business & Community Engagement Evening, bringing together Kenyan nationals living in Tanzania, cross-border traders, logistics operators, founders, and ecosystem stakeholders to discuss practical experiences and solutions.

The session will focus on:
• Understanding real diaspora payment challenges
• Exploring smoother cross-border settlement options
• Strengthening Kenya–Tanzania business relationships
• Building stronger regional business connections
Wakapayments is a Tanzanian-founded fintech startup that operates as a blockchain-based cross-border mobile money platform, as they eliminate friction in intra-African trade by making cross-border payments "as easy as sending a text".

We support conversations that help improve regional trade and collaboration across ecosystems. If you operate across borders or are interested in East African trade, this event may be relevant to you.
