For five consecutive years, Interswitch has been an ardent supporter of the Committee of e-Business Industry Heads (CeBIH) and its objectives. This collaboration is underpinned by a shared objective of enabling further development of the digital payment ecosystem in Nigeria.

The CeBIH retreat provides a platform for the committee to examine key innovations in the payment industry over the past year and discuss insights and trends for the coming year. This year’s retreat took place on December 2nd and 3rd in Abeokuta, Ogun State.

The 2021 Annual CeBIH Retreat tagged, ‘Innovative Digital Banking’ focused on issues around the growth of digital payments in Nigeria and how technological innovations such as digital currencies, blockchain, 5G network, contactless payments, among others, will dominate the payment industry in the coming years.

Interswitch’s Divisional CEO, Purepay Akeem Lawal, was among other top e-business experts who led the discourse at the event.
